Forestone's new Hibiki Flex reeds are the result of six years of development. They are made from a new material, and boast high quality and consistency, delivering superior acoustic properties and playability compared to conventional reeds. ■Innovative materials and manufacturing methods: HIBIKI Flex uses a unique material that combines polypropylene resin and wood cellulose fibers. This new material is machined using the same cutting process as cane reeds, ensuring consistent, consistent quality. It eliminates the warping and distortion common to traditional reeds, providing a consistent playing experience with every instrument. Superior design for exceptional responsiveness. Lighter than conventional resin reeds, the unique grooves provide exceptional responsiveness. Featuring a light, effortless playing feel, it's perfect for genres that require active expression, such as pop and fusion. Even those new to artificial reeds will appreciate the natural flow of breath as they produce sound. HIBIKI Flex uses a new circular marking system that allows the club number to be displayed in 1/4 increments. This flexible design makes it easier for players to find the setting that is best for them. High performance for all players: HIBIKI Flex reeds are ideal for pop and jazz players. Their rich harmonic structure and high responsiveness give them all-around characteristics suitable for any musical genre. They offer easy articulation while playing, and their bright, vibrant sound, especially in the high register, is appealing.
