The Rico Select Jazz cut features a strong, well-defined heart and longer vamp, yielding unprecedented projection and a clear, fat tone, with unsurpassed flexibility and lightning-fast response. Unfiled. Without a French file. The file is the area behind the vamp where the bark is sanded off in a straight line. It provides freedom of response, especially in the low register, making soft attacks and sub tones easier. The file also makes the tone slightly brighter. An option to fine-tune the sound, the file is often preferred by players who use round-chambered mouthpieces, such as Meyer or Otto Link . For those who play medium- to small-chambered, bright-sounding mouthpieces, such as Beechler , Berg Larsen or Dukoff , an unfilled reed is usually preferred.
