Fibracell reeds? I'm a very satisfied user for two years now. i use them on tenor and soprano. Why?
#1 great sound: drop by my friday lunch gigs at Rockwell mall and have a listen
#2 low maintenance/no fuss: just mount it to your mouthpiece and just play! no need to soak in water, alchohol, hydrogen peroxide, etc.
#3 reliable: not affected by humidity, so it won't warp in hot, humid outdoor venues
#4 consistent: relatively, they're more consistent than cane reeds in terms of reed strength.
#5 durable: from my estimate, one Fibracell reed can last 6 months of daily 2-hour practice and 5 nights a week of gigs.
the downside:
#1 they're expensive, i order them at US$15 each! (same prices for soprano, alto, & tenor) also, you need to find the right strength to match your embouchure and mouthpiece. that means having to try different strengths at first, just like any other brand of reed. Click here for a comparison chart:

Unfortunately, they're not available locally. You can order them through ROS music, tel # 4401021.
Hope this helps.
