Designed for a rich and colourful sound with a quick response
Developed in 2002, ZZ reeds combine the medium-thick heart, spine, and rounded tip of V16 reeds, with the flexible palette design of JAVA reeds. This design makes the reed immediately responsive, without sacrificing the brightness or tone quality needed for jazz and other modern styles.
If you want a reed that supports a bright, colourful sound but still retains a strong core, this could be the one for you!
Staff Review
The differences between ZZ and Java reeds is relatively subtle- but noticeable if they are played off against each other. Both reeds are clearly aimed at players within the jazz, blues or even pop field, but are designed to emphasize different parts of the core sound. Javas are relatively bright, edgy with plenty of cut to them. ZZs- though still fairly bright- facilitate a big, somewhat husky tone. There’s pleasing fullness and ‘boom’ here which is very satisfying to work with. - Julian Lawrence (jules@sax.co.uk)
