[QUOTE="skeller047, post: 629772, member: 9069"] I certainly remember the brown box - I still have some LOL! The closest modern reed to an OLD Rico (brown box, and early orange box pre-D’Addario) is Rigotti and Boston Sax Shop black box. The D’Addario Select Jazz are in the same ballpark, but not quite as good. This is for tenor; alto is the reverse for me with BSS black being closest to the old Ricos. The current Ricos have a weak heart, and that goes for the Royals too. (I think they are the same, just filed vs. unfiled.) Just my opinion, of course, your mileage may vary. [/QUOTE]
