What ARE the differences?
(See: "Pad Specs" in the "Back to Basics" section for sizing)
Sax Pads ~
B40 - Plain pad, no hole, .185" thick, reminiscent of 1920's
and 1930's style.
B42 - Rivet pad, Riveted, .185" thick, reminiscent of 1930's
and 1940's style.
B43 & B44 - Rivet w/flat washer, .160" and .185" thick,
reminiscent of 1950's
and 1960's style.
B46 & B47 - Domed larger washer, .160" and .185" thick,
reminiscent of old Buescher &
IS SuperAction 80 pad.
B50 - Conn style Reso with Ring and Rivet w/flat washer,
this
IS the Conn Reso from the 1940's, 50's & 60's.
B52 & B53 - Slightly domed plastic washer (now
"called" a
resonator), this
IS the Selmer Paris Mk. VI pad.
B56 & B62 - Conical plastic
"resonator", developed for
Armstrong, Couf and Keilwerth,
this is the pad with
superior air management.
The "Pro pad" with the
longest history of success.
GREAT in Selmer VI, too!
B60 - Metal backed pad, this
IS the Buescher Snap-On pad
from the old days.
B58 & B59 - These are both
of the thicknesses of pads,
Ready for Resonators,
you customize sizing.
B64 & B66 - These are the De'jur pads,
"Pneumatic" leather,
Ready for Resonators, you customize
the sizing.
BOTH thickness are available for your precision fit.
THESE
are the pads that
successfully compete
with the super pricey Kangaroo pads;
providing
long term economy, durability and endurance.
THESE ARE SIXTEEN (16) DIFFERENT TYPES AND STYLES OF --
JUST SAXOPHONE PADS!

thick *
B26 - Premium double yellow skin, needle felt medium pad,

SEVEN (7) TYPES OF FLUTE PADS,
I like these*
*Why? Needle felt is firmer and requires more discipline from
the installer to make them
level and "Right". This translates into
a better job for your customer and a more
reliable job, from YOU.
Clarinet Pads ~
B10 & B11* - Regular sgl.
& dbl. skin, woven felt, med. thick
B20 & B21* - Regular sgl. & dbl. skin, woven felt,
is medium
B24 & B25* - Regular sgl. &: dbl. skin, woven felt, med. thin
B17 - Premium, "True" double skins, peach colored back,
woven felt, medium pad*
SEVEN (7) TYPES OF CLARINET PADS, I like these.*
*Why?
The double skin is quieter when closing and they may
last longer than a single skin,
for more endurance and reliability.
The
crinkly pad noise generated by a single skin can be
distracting to the
player, so, why chance it? Use pads these first,
instead of doing the
job over. Doing things over, is never profitable.
"Premium", denotes that the
component materials used in
the making of the pads were hand selected for
their cosmetic
look and NOT
their quality. All of our pads are of Top Quality.
Ferree's does NOT carry a "lower line" or
bargain priced
series of pads, just in
order to have something cheap to sell.
Your labor is more valuable to us than that.
