I play classical with Vandoren AL3. When I use my V16 s5+, my pitch becomes mostly sharp. Is it due to my classical embouchure?

Basically, the embouchere of classical and jazz are mainly the same, except when we use the sub-tone technique. Maybe the intonation problem comes from the stiffness of the reed. By the way, you mean V16 A5 s+ or S16? Because of the tip opening, maybe you should try a softer reed or different cut series. Thank you!😊

The AL3 and s+ have the same facing length(20mm), but for the tip opening, s+ is 1,88mm and AL3 is 1,52mm. If you use the reed of same stiffness with both mouthpieces, there will be a big difference when you play. I suggest that if you use reed of strength 3 with your AL3, you should use 2,5 or even 2 with the s+. Thank you 😊!
