Vandoren Bb Clarinet V-12 Reeds 3.5 bring the V-12's thicker tip and heel construction to a bulk pack of 50 reeds. This listing is specifically for size 3.5, making it easy to order your preferred configuration in a larger quantity.

Large-diameter cane construction

V-12 reeds are manufactured from cane tubes with the same diameter as those used for saxophone reeds. Because this larger-diameter cane is rarer, it carries a higher manufacturing cost. The resulting V-12 design is thicker at both ends.

Comparing reed strengths

V-12 and Traditional reed strengths are not directly interchangeable. As a reference, a V-12 size 4 reed is approximately equivalent to a Vandoren Traditional size 3.5 reed. This comparison is a guide to the ranges, not a separate equivalence claim for the 3.5 reeds in this pack.
