The Rico Royal RLB1030 is a box of 10 baritone saxophone reeds in Strength 3.0. These are the "Royal" line from D'Addario — the filed counterpart to the classic orange-box Rico reed — designed to give baritone players a step up in response and clarity without jumping to a specialty or premium reed.
What sets the Royal apart from the standard Rico is the French filed cut. That filing removes a thin layer of bark from the reed's vamp, which opens up the response — particularly in the low register — and adds definition to the tone. The traditional blank and profile keep the feel familiar, while the filed cut brings a bit more flexibility and articulation ease. Strength 3.0 sits in a balanced middle ground: enough resistance for solid tone and projection, while still being responsive enough for players who are still building their embouchure or technique. All Royal reeds are made in the USA from naturally-grown cane.
