Eastman ESPERTO rees are crafted from premium select filed French cane. Esperto reeds begin with the largest available cane so that the blank used incorporates the best part of the cane into the most important parts of the finished reed. Each handcrafted Esperto reed is selected for its straight grain and cosistent measurements from heel to tip. Unlike most other reeds currently made, you will find each Eastman Esperto reed in the box to be of same high quality.
