Légère American Cut Alto Saxophone Reed

The American Cut represents the next generation of Légère saxophone reeds. The reed speaks with total ease from the first note while giving players just the right amount of tonal edge. It is effortlessly free-blowing, colorful, and loaded with personality.

Reinvented Profile

• The American Cut is the ideal jazz saxophone reed and is unlike any reed you’ve ever played. By taking material from the outside of the reed and pushing it towards the heart, the reed maintains its stiffness while allowing the edges to vibrate as freely as possible. This change creates a sharp spine through the center of the vamp giving the reed its unique appearance. The American Cut’s distinct profile is what gives players a full, clear low register and vibrant altissimo.

Made for Jazz

• After years of research, more than ten design iterations, and hundreds of test reeds issued, the American Cut is the most thoroughly developed reed Légère has ever produced. This extensive testing process was conducted for one purpose; to create a jazz reed that offers total performance freedom while delivering the dependability that Légère reeds have become known for.
