5.0 out of 5 stars Best jaZZ reeds on the planet, December 15, 2004

I've played just about every jazz reed out there; Alexander's, LaVoz, every flavor of Rico reed, Brancher jazz, and Java's and V-16's and the ZZ beats them all for a powerful, bright, warm, buzzy tone with tons of color. The V-16's are a close second to the ZZ in terms of overall tone, and they are a bit harder than ZZ, so I now use a strength-3 V-16 to practice on, and I use strength-3 ZZ's to perform with. I am looking forward to seeing the next jazz vandoren reed, and to see if they can outdo themselves again! My setup is a Selmer Reference 54 alto sax, New York, USA Meyer 6MM mouthpiece with gold Bay ligature.

5.0 out of 5 stars A rather enjoyable jazz reed, August 19, 2004

The ZZ reed is much softer than the standard V16 and seems a bit more jazz prone than even Javas. I really cannot pinpoint what, but these reeds just feel so right for jazz.
