I previously used the Vandoren V12 3.5 to 3.5+ for what feels like forever...Long story made short, They weren't working for me after so many years. They were either too soft or too hard. When I tried the 56 Rue Lepic, I noticed an instantaneous difference! It was warmer, richer, and most importantly it was the right strength for me! Now that is my experience but it may not be for everyone because all have an idea of what they want their sound to be. but I hope this helps!

I used to be a traditional blue box reeds kind of guy, but man did these change me. Great tone for how much air you output. I feel that there’s not much to say about these because while they are more expensive, they are easy to use and functional for clarinetists at any level.

These Reeds are great. They help make getting a wonderful tone much easier. Unfortunately for me I didn't need a whole set of 3.5 reeds but paying $32.10 for Vandoren 56's you easily get your money's worth. I went (As a Guinea Pig) to a Band Teacher Convention on teaching beginning clarinetists how to play 16th and 32nd notes as well as proper tonguing technique and last but not least reeds. This brand Vandoren came highly recommended by the person presenting and they also said that they start students out with 2.5 and then move them up directly to 3.5 reed strength(Help the student with proper breathing). I have used this brand for 2 or 3 years now and highly recommend it to anyone that has been playing more than a year on Rico Reeds I wouldn't buy these for a student that might drop the instrument after a year as they are more expensive. I find that with this strength you can get 3 full octaves plus a few notes above High C easily, and then pound out a couple more above that.

Reeds are a personal choice, and after spending several months trying out a wide variety of reeds, I've settled on these for the time being. They're consistent and don't require too much adjustment, they produce a nice tone and are very responsive. On my Rico Reserve X0 mouthpiece the 3.5 is about the right strength though I might try some 4's as well. 56 Rue Lepic's aren't right for every player, but they're definately worth trying if you're in search for a new reed.*UPDATE - I reduced my rating down to four stars for the following reasons.After using these reeds for a while I became less content with their reliability, after having several broken-in reeds behave erratically during performances. While they are good reeds, and can produce an excellent tone, I've moved on to synthetic reeds, which I find work significantly better and more reliably for me. 56 Rue Lepic reeds are definately worth a look, but they're not perfect for me,

Très bonne sonorité, produit fiable et sans mauvaise surprise. En ce qui me concerne, combinaison idéale avec un bec Vandoren 5 RV Lyre.
