Beginners Strength The Traditional German White Masters range clarinet reeds lists from 1 through to 5 in increments of 1/2 with 1 being the weakest and 5 being the strongest. The variations in reed strength depends on the standard of the player. Strength 1 reeds are made thinner and therefore weaker allowing the performer to get a note easier without squeaking but consequently loosing sound quality and intonation. A Strength 5 reed is difficult to achieve a note but the tone and ability to stay in tune is much greater. All the reeds between these extremes work on a sliding scale based on these principles.
