Getting my old Conn alto "shooting star" fixed up, relearning how to play after decades. What would be the best reed "strength" for getting back in?

I started playing sax again after 60 years and now with bad lungs. I've settled in on RICO 2.0. I can get the sound I want and still breathe.

Where are these made ands what chemical are they soaked in?

The cane comes from France and the reeds are made in the US. There are no chemicals involved in the process.

Buenas las cañas son para tenor o para alto porque en la imagen sale ls foto y dice alto. Gracias

Las cañas son para saxofón alto.

いい音色します！

リードは、吹奏レベル、使っている機種あらゆる条件によって合う合わないが決まりますので一概にはいいとは言えませんが、、私の使っているPモーリアにはドンピシャでした！！やっと合うリードがみつかりました！！ヤマハでもそれなりには合うとは思います、リガチャー、マッピ、との相性も見ながら合うチョイスをすればいい音色がでます。リード一枚一枚にハードケースに入ってるところも高ポイントです！

El resultado se merece las 5 ESTRELLAS

Exáctamente 5 meses después de recibirlas, y tras un uso diario de 15 minuto de media, la primera caña sigue MEJORANDO. (La mantengo en vozka!) INCREIBLE!!
