VKis a synthetic reed made of a composite material specially developed byVandoren. It is the result of 7 years of research.
This composite material does not imitate the structure of the reed. It reproduces the essential physical characteristics of the reed to obtain the same acoustic behavior.
Features
The material is moisture-resistant, rot-proof, does not warp when dried, and is saliva-resistant
The VK performs considerably longer than cane reeds with a high level of consistency.
The reeds can be used directly out of the packaging, without any preparation. The material is washable and can be disinfected with alcohol or with any food-compliant disinfectant
Unparalleled consistency resulting in reliable strength, sound, articulation, projection and high note stability
