BSS Black Label Reeds

The reed that put Boston Sax Shop on the map. The Black Label is a hybrid jazz/classical cut developed in partnership with Rigotti France — one of the best cane suppliers in the world — and it remains the foundation of the BSS lineup. If you've heard players talk about BSS reeds, this is almost certainly the one they mean.

The thicker tip and full heart profile give the Black Label a warm, homogenous tone that balances projection with blend. It doesn't push bright or dark — it sits in a balanced place that works across styles and settings without asking you to compromise. Strong enough to project when you need it, warm enough to sit in a section without sticking out.

Consistent, well-made, and built on exceptional cane. Each box contains 5 reeds.
