- Maybe they should actually exist. It's a hit or miss concept, but this was a definite miss. I am talking about flavored reeds. Maybe another brand will come through and take the world by storm with the best playing reeds in the world that have customizable flavors. Imagine Vandoren or Boston Sax Shop getting in there. Can you imagine a world where flavored reeds are so typical that you're considered an outcast for using normal cane? People would call you a primal animal for using default reeds. It would be like... eating sugar free peanut butter & jelly sandwiches with whole wheat seeded bread. Why would you do that do yourself? And wow, what about flavored synthetic reeds? What if those got so advanced, they had customizable temperatures? And they would be sponsored by Elon Musk. All paid for through Bitcoin. Better yet, Dogecoin. The customizable temperature would allow you to turn it into a never melting popsicle. A popsicle that lasts for ever. Isn't that all we've ever wanted? Society needs to hurry. Wow, it hits different when you rant through a description. Thank you for reading.
Also, what the heck! The Mario Kart Lick is going viral AGAIN. What is happening? And I am approaching 100K subscribers. I am scared! :D Also I have to pay taxes soon. So I am extra scared :D :D Thank you everyone for the support, I really appreciate it. I definitely do not deserve it but I will just ride the wave for as long as it will let me.
If you still wanna buy your own flavored reeds for the meme:

"You have a good taste in music"
"Thanks, its strawberry."
Haha
that was awful and i love it
Haha
Haha
LMAO
old recordings didnt sound scratchy because they were old. They sounded scratchy because they used cherry flavored reeds.
yes
@MR.random57 wut
Old recordings are scratchy because of the first word I said. They are not brand new, they have been worn, like those idiots who compare old and new vehicles like that's an accurate comparison with equal results.
@@WitchKing-Of-Angmar it's just a joke
@@waterbe3564 joke or not, you thought it was that since you basically said it, then said the joke as the opposing to what you actually thought.
It's amazing how a bad reed can make you sound like a 5th grader in an instant.
I once sounded like that in front of my whole town. It sucked
Ik I was so embarrassed my reed today got messed up and I sounded like trash in front of the whole band
i'm a 5th grader and honestly, i've always sounded the best in the band. According to my knowledge because 30 people play with instruments trombone, baritone, flute, clarinet, trumpet, and alto sax. So you can only hear you and the person sitting next to you
@jude brewer I doubt you are the best in the band. You just full of lies!
I 100 percent see why you are saying this being in a 5th grade band i can say we all suck
The fact my teacher is making me watch this for an assignment
in class is vibin.
Whoaaa haha I am honored! What’s the purpose of the assignment?
@@Saxologic legend has it he may never respond but some rumors say that he will awaken

'unpleasant taste of the cane'
*excuse me*
Thank you!
cane is delicious
@@thenotoriusbp when you buy a reed and you put it in water your a pesent
@@harmonyjames6221 i dont do that cuz im too lazy
Looks like that aftertaste will be tail-recursive XD
When it's very cold and my lips are destroyed I get some blood tasting reeds for free
Lmao yum iron flavor
marching band in the spring in a nutshell
Blood is my favorit flavor
@@Suitsnstylesguy facts
@MR.random57 thank you Yoda.
When you’re draining the spit valve and it starts to smell like a fruit smoothie
@@Lardbeane whoa whoa you gotta chill man.....
"I don't remember adding eggplant..."
saxes dont have spit valves
Correction:bari saxes have spit valves around the neck loop
@@funkalicioussilvano3346 Bass saxes do, not bari
As soon as Jesse tried playing the cherry flavored reed, I realized that this wasn't a sponsored video.....
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 oh my gosh, that was the best comment
ha ha ha@@Dimondgamingwr
I just laughed so loud in the library when jesse tried the cherry flavor and it didn't even make a sound haha
Hahahaha I died as well
A member of my band once ate a jolly rancher right before playing and it turned her reed blue for a week.. this looks just like that
Wow her sax pads must have been destroyed haha
We’re all her keys stuck ? Hahaha
I mean pretty much😂
haha i drank a red slushy before i played and it stained my reed
@@graces646 wtf
Imagine starting on these and getting used to putting insane amounts of pressure through it. Then when you try actual reeds you just destroy it with the pressure
One Punch Man but with the sax instead 😂
yoo
Oof
@MR.random57 where did that come from my guy? (Or are you a bot?)
@Random man amen
I actually like the taste of normal reeds lol
Same, I don’t get people who hate it
ikr it's not even bad
Same specially vandorian reeds
Same
I hate the taste of a new one... once it's broken in it tastes fine
I need to get on that flavored trumpet mouthpiece game.
Made from candy.
That's a "no thanks" from me bro.
Whoaa made of hardened candy
The trumpet is a very spitty instrument as we all know, and we all know what happens when spit and sugar come together. Cleaning normal gunk out of a trumpet isn't fun already. I would hate to imagine cleaning candy out of my horn. 😂

Jesse Shelton is definitely S-tier in the saxologic lore universe.
100%
Agreed 100% lol i always crack up editing videos featuring him 😂
I prefer the expanded universe Jesse before Disney ruined it.

6:53
Tfw the phrase "tasty licks" becomes literal
devious lick
I like the taste of normal reeds so much, I want to find a reed with a higher concentration of its own taste
Whoa LOL
Cane wood extract soaked reeds for my palate thank you.
I like them when they’re new but after that they taste super funky
@@girliebird1482 as a clarinetist I have mutual feelings
YES!!!
Now I get why our band directors practically BEGGED us not to buy these during 6th grade
I bought these as a joke thing for my section a while ago for marching band.
None of us expected anything good, but goddamn was it funny
How many sax players does it take to change a light bulb?
A: Only one but they have to go through a whole box of bulbs to find one they like.
As a sax player I find this highly offensive and you generalize the whole saxophone community and underestimate us, we go through 3 boxes not 1
I’m saving this for later
@@mrmrmeta3698 I identify with this (I’m a clarinet player)
You can only use one player, or they will fight over which ones better
@@trinitykami4405 as a clarinet and trombone player, same
Now I am very tempted to see how bad the clarinet ones sound. Do I drop money for a joke? Absolutely, saxophone man did and I shall follow.
So how was it?
Me too lmao
Would like an update, please
Ima do it as I also have a clarinet
@@nugget9190 clarinet gang
Back in fourth grade when I started learning to play my alto sax, a few other saxophonists and I were talking about how smart flavored reeds would be… and then the band teacher told us the horror
The world of reeds is so interesting to me. Like, when would brass player ever have a FLAVORED mouthpiece?
And when would they taste it? They do the 'bzzz' and 'pbpbpbpbpbpbll' kind of thing into theirs they don't put their mouth on it
The better question is, why don't we have flavoured mouthpieces?
@@jeannebouwman1970 wouldn't they get all sticky?
I'd imagine it could work ok for kids who need convincing to get into instruments
Mouthpiece would end up being dissolved, and or nasty, as I see the only way to really make one would be from candied sugar. It would be an entirely different mouthpiece each time too. Maybe even every few measures.
As a brass player the fact that a reed can make this much of a difference on a woodwind is crazy to me 😂
I've never heard a reed make a difference this drastic. It's honestly impressive how shitty they are 😂
Well then you better hear the clarinet if you don't position your reed correctly, just a little bit too low you'll be squeaking almost every time you try to play or change a note. It's also high pitched.. 😅
I know right
It’s demoralizing realizing I sound like them playing with these reads 😂
Keep practicing, we all have to start somewhere! These guys have been doing this for a long time, so set small goals for yourself and keep yourself motivated!
*reeds
Still waiting on my sprite cranberry flavored reed. Smh.
Reminds me of the dentist when they’re like “What flavor cleaning do you want? We got cherry, blue raspberry, watermelon, cookie dough, chocolate, and mint.”
yo if you didn’t go with blueberry muffin you were wrong
@@Tyranitar. wish mine had that flavor tbh
I have one of those! It only gets the taste after a few hours of playing, I think its something like "blood" flavor
Now they just need to figure out how to mask the unpleasant sound. I think more flavor should do it
you guys just can’t appreciate that delicious T O N E
For less resistance, you have to buy the $800 jolly rancher mouthpiece (I recommend the 1.5* tip opening). It will dissolve over time so make sure you get the warranty.
Congrats on 100k!
It's the Flute Channel!
ok
I will buy them once they have a Baja Blast flavor.
Why not try soaking your reed in Baja Blast
I once soaked my reed in lemon juice because I like the taste of lemons and it kinda worked
@@ChaimMosheZaltsman did the acid in the lemon juice damage it?
@@goosegirly6867 I don’t think so. So if you want to try what I did use one of your worse reeds as a tester
@@ChaimMosheZaltsman your mouthpiece isn’t nasty from the sugar in the lemon juice/reed?
@@ruslmuscl406 don’t remember I did it like a year ago and only used it like 5-10 times
The cherry is like if whiplash featured a saxophonist instead of the drummer due to practicing too much
lmao😂😂
Not funny. This actually happened to me when preparing for my Berklee audition. . . Five to eight hours a day, six days a week for six months. My practice coach laughed at the pink reed, said it looked like I was wearing lipstick. I passed the audition so it was worth it.
@@lion037 ggs
the five people who disliked this were the people who own the company
Nah there’s no chance more than one person supported that idea
Those reeds weren't made for classical or jazz, but for John Cage's 4:33, at which they excel. 🔥
my favorite song!
😂
lmao
Man, those reeds were fucking insane sounding on DeadTerritory metal cover of 4'33
Alright altissimo: *intense demon screeching*
😂😂😂😂😂
LOL🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is the same concept as Wish products
This doesn’t even compare to seventh grade me putting a cherry cough drop in my trumpet mouthpiece
how'd it go
how'd it go
how’d it go
how’d it go
how’d it go
When I was younger, like maybe 8 years ago or something like that, my older brother had these grape flavored reeds that he liked and used often. I dont know if they were as poorly made as these, but I can still remember the mix of grape and wood and it was honestly really good
You probably kept that reed company in business by buying those reeds
Even though this vid was a total roast I hope it still gets them sales for the memes
@@Saxologic oh sh*t they actually paid you to roast their product?! I didn’t realize this was a sponsorship💀💀💀
@@dewilew2137 Oh no, definitely not lol that would be an odd endorsement relationship
I’m gonna buy a sax because I want to try it because I watched you play and loved it so I am inspired enjoy the sub
@Keanan thank you
@Keanan also what reed should I use
Ayy i started tenor sax cause of him
@@cyruswilliams8714 i’m not that guy but id say start on strength 1 if uve never played with a wind instrument
@@kitkatman6940 ok thx
This reminded me of our only clarinet in our sad small band. Evertime she took her mouth off to rest, I'd always see her reed be bloodshot red. I was concerned for the first half, but then I realize it was just stained with her lip balm or lipstick. It was one or the other but I was never sure. I was always concerned until I realize the split second. She was pretty good at it even as a begginer
I play bass clarinet, and I swear to god, this would be hilarious to play with while people hear aggressive tonguing and my ombuture shitting on itself.
Bass Clarinet too!
Why would a flavored reed affect your embouchure?
@@ajhauter5049 a bad or stiff reed makes you tired a lot quicker lol
Tbh Jesse’s sound on the cherry reed is what I sound like every time I take out my instrument considering I haven’t shedded since my senior recital.👍🏼
Cherry and blue raspberry classical sound like a double reed player trying to play on a blank
As a Tenor Saxophone, I want to buy these to taste the rainbow
I'm a tenor as well and I've been interested in flavored reeds since marching band started
i play tenor too
Something I learned in middle school. If you "clean" your reed in listerine, it'll taste like mint until you throw the damn thing away 😂
11:30 moon hooch be like:
*T R A F F I C C O N E*
My tea kettle is boiling can someone go turn off the burner
Discovered your lick video, got recommended your reed taste video, man I'm hooked and subbed and may have a new interest in jazz music which I did not expect
Wooo mission accomplished 😎
I had some cherry chapstick on while playing. Yes it made the reed flavored but I couldn’t get a good sound from it anymore.
I laughed so much it’s insane. This was fun to watch. I guess the flavoring is a disguise to hide the fact that those reeds never made it through the full process of the time necessary for a reed to become playable. Thanks man. Great video.
Now if you had Honey installed...
This made me laugh more than the video.
These are indeed.... Total garbage. A fun novelty
I agree. The website of the company look legit and you get this!
But... but that's just gonna make you salivate while playing...
I mean, sometimes reeds can taste kinda sweet, but nowhere close to cherry. I can't imagine the feel of that, it can't be so bad, but it will just make you salivate. Also, apparently they don't work, so... perhabs reed-shaped candy would be the best place to go from here.
Imagine that you have to play a gig and that's all you happen to have
Now I need flavored bass strings
They already are if you never change them.
Yo what about the reed flavor reeds?
It's so cool to see how reed quality effects the sound this much!!
Nothing beats the initial, straight out the box taste of a normal reed
Next up for trumpets: Jolly Rancher mouthpieces!
Next thing you know SYOS is going to make flavored mouthpieces...
This brings back memories of buying a plastic reed for my Baritone Sax during a junior high Jazz band festival. So much pain.
My clarinetist friends "I wish we were allowed to use flavored reeds"
Me: *chewing on a reed*
No ones gonna comment that he owns a cannonball alto saxophone? As someone who owns a cannonball. I have respect for you brotha.
Dude im so happy theres no school because its cold in tex and ill practice too
It’s funny cause I used one of those for 4 months in eight grade on my clarinet. I always thought it was just me when I found it hard to play.
We had so many people get in trouble with these back in middle school in 97 or 98. Our band director would tell us how much damage they could do to our instruments
As a clarinetist who's played sax before, flavored reeds would be interesting to try 😂
So it functions just about as well as middle school band reeds but with more ✨f l a v o u r✨
Hey Saxologic! Loved the video! I just wanted to let you know that your dolphin shoals cover from forever ago inspired me to learn the sax and eventually get to a point where I made my own, so I wanted to say thanks and keep up the great work :)
I work for D'Addario (and often deal with inquiries for B&O) and any time I get a question of someone asking us to make flavored reeds, I'll send them this video. Thanks for that!
I love how the reeds are just different flavors and they’re so inconsistent. Quality product 1/10. Quality video 10/10
They don't even look like I'd want to put them in my mouth, let alone put them on an expensive instrument too lmao
watching this, really helps me know that I might not be as rusty as I seem to be, and that it is my mouthpiece and reeds that are bad. I got a tenor for Christmas, haven't played in 17 years, it's not as easy as I remember to get the notes out. It's a $700 sax (John Paul, I think it is, or something like that), with the basic mouthpiece; no seal whatsoever.
I did have a video of me playing, but it was so cringe I deleted it. lol
First time to your vids, now subscribed.
When Nathan did the Cinnamon one, it was hilarious. I couldn’t stop laughing for a week. I don’t know why. I somehow found it hilarious that your pitch was so flat you used that reed. 😂😂
It’s for those sax players who have bad breath who you don’t want to offend. 💀
What's next? Sequin mouthpieces? Bow-tie ligatures? So anyway I'll take 20, can't wait to try them out on the remainder of my college auditions.
I had Mr. Shelton for sax sectionals when I went to ECU band camp a couple years ago!!! He was a great teacher!
They need a flavor flute head joint guys 😍
I'm cringing so bad at this. The reeds squeak the same way I did when I first started. Goodness I feel bad but also glad that you did that and not me
When I first started playing sax at age 8 or 9 this is how I thought I would make my millions...
I think you all the good shit coming your way. You make some great content with consistency, and you're one of my favorite creators as a result of that. Thank YOU!
Hey man! Congratulations on reaching 100k subs! Well deserved keep up the great work 👍🏾
Also if you dont mind me asking, what mic do you use to record playing at home? I searched the description for gear before asking!
jazz has never been tastier! get ready to play your favorite tunes through the savory flavors of these reeds!
Tenderloin flavored reed
Yo you and Jesse should do a tier list for all the flavor reeds. I’d watch that!
congrats on 100k, you’ve come a long way 😌
So I’m working on a crowdfunding project to commission 2 sets of works inspired by paired culinary dishes and beverages, and when I heard “taste the music...”
The audible laughter was uncontrollable
This might be the missing key to my setup... I will be making a purchase
I'm binge watching Saxologic videos again lol
Jesse was my big band director for jazz camp last summer, we love you Jesse
Don’t forget dem bills boy lol 😂
Personally, I like the flavor of flight of the bumblebee, nice honey taste
I would be walking around with a mouth piece in my mouth all day looking crazy
Keep grinding bro your videos are really enjoyable
Such an airy, ethereal tone. Very Desmondesque. (Sorry Paul)
It’s so weird seeing all these comments about liking the taste of cane, while I’m over here who hates cane with a passion
Flavored reeds share the same energy as scented rosin.
Flavored reeds made me contemplate choosing trumpet to play
YOU ORDERED 1.5 STRENGTH REEDS WHAT WERE YOU EXPECTING
