Vandoren V12 Bb Clarinet Reeds

A premium reed delivering a full, resonant tone.

The V12 Bb Clarinet Reeds from Vandoren are crafted from high-quality cane to produce a warm, nuanced sound. Designed for advanced clarinetists and long facing mouthpieces, these reeds feature a thicker heart and tip for enhanced vibration and tonal richness. The longer vibrational palette allows more of the reed to resonate, resulting in a tone with impressive depth and body. Whether you’re a student honing your skills or a professional performing on the world’s most prestigious stages, Vandoren’s V12 reeds can help you achieve a full, resonant tone.

Thicker Cane Construction Provides a Warmer, Richer Tone

The V12 reeds are cut from cane typically used for alto saxophone reeds, which is thicker than the cane used for Vandoren’s traditional clarinet reeds. This thicker cane produces a warmer, richer tone with a pronounced attack and long-lasting results. The thicker tip and heart also provide greater vibration for a tone with exceptional depth and nuance.

Longer Vibrational Palette Creates Fuller Resonance

With a longer vibrational palette, more of the V12 reed is able to vibrate. This enhanced vibration results in a tone with impressive resonance, richness and body. Whether you’re performing a Mozart concerto, improvising a jazz solo or playing in a wind ensemble, V12 reeds can help you achieve a full, nuanced tone that carries in any acoustic space.

Individually Sealed Packaging Guarantees Freshness

Each V12 clarinet reed comes individually sealed in Vandoren’s Flow Pack packaging. This air-tight seal locks in freshness and ensures the reed maintains consistent quality. When you open a pack of V12 reeds, you can have confidence you’re getting reeds at their peak performance with the vibrant tone Vandoren is renowned for.
