The Reeds and Mouthpiece

The reed on your jS

is very important, this is the part that vibrates and makes the sound. Your

comes with

synthetic reeds numbered

and

. The reed marked

is the softest and

should be the easiest to create an initial sound. The

reed is a little harder and offers more resistance

when played. We recommend starting with the number

, and trying the

as you progress through

the book. If you look after them, your reeds should last a long time. Biting or chewing your reeds will

damage them, and they won’t work properly. Check the tip of your reed from time to time to make

sure it is flat, and always replace the mouthpiece cap carefully when you have finished playing.

Removing the Reed

You should not have to remove the reed very often, as it is

ok to leave it on the mouthpiece all the time. When you do

need to change the reed, simply lift the ligature as shown

then carefully slide the reed away from the mouthpiece. Try

not to touch the tip of the reed.

Assembling Your Reed and Mouthpiece

There is a location rib on the reed which fits into the slot on the mouthpiece; slide the reed into the

slot and then snap the ligature shut as shown. This enables you to position the reed perfectly every

time. The tip of the reed should now be lined up with the tip of the mouthpiece.

When placing the mouthpiece on your jS

, notice the rubber O-rings on the neck which seal the

mouthpiece with the body. Make sure they are in their slots before attaching the mouthpiece to the

body. The end of the mouthpiece should line up with the line on the neck.
