The Java "Filed - Red cut" is part of the Java reed series from Vandoren but with a completely new design - It is the first Vandoren jazz reed with a file cut (French cut).

The driving force behind the JAVA “Filed – Red Cut” design was to offer more sonic possibilities to musicians while keeping the qualities of the original Java. More flexible than its elder version, with a little more tonal body, the JAVA “Filed – Red Cut” offers a full, rich, centered sound and excellent projection with an extremely precise attack.
