V12 Bass Clarinet reeds are manufactured from cane tubes with the same diameter as cane used for tenor saxophone reeds.

As a result, they have a thicker heel and are cut on a longer palette with a slightly thicker tip than the Traditional. The longer palette means that more of the reed is vibrating, resulting in a deeper, richer sound.
The thicker tip gives body to the attack and also increases the longevity of the reed. - made in France - box of 5 reeds.
