Rico Royal 3s >>>>>> Vandoren 3s

I said what I said ! !

#jess rambles #sillyposting #today’s infodump is about reeds #for context ​this is about saxophone reed brands and the near universal recommendation of vandoren reeds to players #I won’t stand for the vandoren elitism! ! !! #Ricos are easier to play I don’t even care if they’re fOr StUdEnTs #also the shame about reed strength is so annoying like #it gets beat into your head that if you play a strength under a 3 you’re a pussy basically #which is so funny bc different brands measure differently anyway #for example a vandoren 3 is probably closer to a Rico Royal 2.5 strength #so I’ve always gotten Rico 3s to avoid teasing about playing on a 2.5 #but I wonder if I would like vandorens better if I did try a 2.5 #vandoren 3s are just too hard for me personally #I can play on them it’s just tiring and sounds worse #okay now I’m talking myself into trying a vandoren 2.5 out of curiousity. go home everyone post failed LMAO #I just put some 2.5s in my cart and my ego is screaming at me #death to you ego. perish.
