Bravo reeds were designed in California, USA and are made to the strictest non-toxic EU guidelines. They are supplied in a box of 5 and reportedly offer longer life span than standard cane reeds.
Upon testing we've found these reeds to be one of the most impressive synthetic options we've ever tried. With a flexibility and response that is commonly missing on synthetic reeds the Bravo offers a clean sound but still with some warmth and a wide dynamic range is possible.
In terms of strength we would say these are very similar to the Vandoren V12 strengths, or to put it another way 1/2 strength softer than Vandoren Classic blue box.

I ordered and paid for two packets of reeds on the 19 September and have only received one so far. I wasn’t informed that there was only one available at the time of ordering.
The supplier responded:Dear customer, Thank you for your feedback. Apologies if our order confirmation wasn't clear, any out of stock items are highlighted on this by a small red asterix and differing numbers in the 'ordered' and 'supplied' columns. I can see that your reeds are now in stock and as such, I will make sure that they are sent out today for you. Kind regards, Kasey Stone - Dawkes Sales
There was a big problem with delivery, but Dawkes was very responsive and I will certainly make purchases with them in the future
Facile d\'emploi mais le son d\'une anche en bois est meilleur
Disappointed with them. The reeds don\'t work for me, yet, but I\'ll persevere and hope they turn out to be a good buy. The patches are fine and exactly what I expected.
They work fine should last awhile.
The first time l have used synthetic reeds I found them Excellent..
Bought incorrect strength. Not sure about tone.
I have already used a box of these reeds and I'm very impressed with them. Unlike conventional reeds, every one is perfect. Each one is long lasting and does not split or break and, in my experience, each one 'sings' beautifully making practice a joy. The only downside is that when brand new, the reeds are very stiff and take a few practice sessions to play in. I find I need to replace the reed when it stops playing nicely. All in all, I'm a convert to these reeds, they play well and because of their durability are actually really good value.
Very good reeds, #2 works for me.
very good!
