This is full range reed for Tenor Saxophone Bb with concerto range A2b-E5 (frequency range 104-659 Hz). Proper articulation and embouchure is required to cover the full range, but it is reachable with ease.
Print with as high quality in Z as your printer and heatbed cover allows. I printed reeds with Z-layer 0.04 mm and initial layer 0.12 mm. This provided 3 layers for 0.2 mm tip thickness and smooth surface. The reed shouldn't be sand-papered, since it already has required vamp profile. It may be post-processed with acetone (since this model is for ABS only by design), but I did not try acetoning myself.
