### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    You get our of your breath easily if you are beginner
  

*by J***E on Reviewed in India on 16 August 2017*

Bamboo coated with hard plastic. Very difficult to blow. You get out of your breath easily if you are a beginner, and on top of it, the lower notes will not be played because of the hardness. Try a 1.5 strength bamboo/ cane reed instead!
