is this a good strength for a beginner? What do the strength numbers mean?

It depends on physical strength and the mouthpiece. If the mouthpiece is very closed (1mm tip opening or less is typical of student setups) or if the student is very strong, these may be too weak. In my experience (20 years and hundreds of students), most students outgow them in a month if they practice and many have to switch to 2.5s much sooner if not start there (especially students that apply a lot of force to the mouthpiece). Better bet to buy a vandoren sample pack of 2s and 2.5s and you'll be covered for all eventualities. They sell sample packs of 4 reeds each..

Do they come in a reed guard?

Pictures in my listing shows the open box, with plastic guards. 8 new ones only.

What is the return policy on these reeds? Saw where there were mold issues a couple of years ago.

I’ve not seen mold on bamboo reeds.

Do they work on bass clarinet

No these will be too small for a bass clarinet mouthpiece.

Great quality!

I picked my clarinet up 15 years after using it last, and these reeds perfectly fit my needs. The quality was like I remember and the price was reasonable.

Decent reeds

These are great for students. They work just as well as the ones (different brand) I purchased from the music store, and more affordable.

Great product, bad packaging

The product itself is great, but it was sent in a big envelope that crushed the boxes last time.
