Bought this on Ebay. Apart from being told the T11 doesn't exist, I wonder if anyone has any thoughts about reed strength eic.

You know what?
French are not monster for marketing (... ok ok, people at SYOS are definitely "masters" on advertisement).

The V16 T11 is on Vandoren Catalog since at least 2009.

Catalog = where they list what they make and sell;
Website = what they like to show to the people... Vandoren business is hugely based on physical/offline shops so... every Vandoren retailer has an official catalog and you can order everything Vandoren has on the catalog.
The thing is the T10 and the T11 are no so popular due to the big tip opening... but if you find 'em, you can buy 'em.


From 2019 official Vandoren catalog:

I still have a 2009, unfortunately not in English...

@flamingoer Makes the tip opening 0.133, depending on your experience I would start with a 2 or 2.5 reed.
