Default What size to use

I am 44 and picking up the sax after 26 years. I would like some opinions on what size reed to use. I have a Bundy Alto and a Jupiter Tenor.

Depends on the mpc tip opening you are using.If its middle of the road like a .090 to .105 on tenor I'd say try a 2 1/2. This is only a hypothesis because its really trial and error . You just returned to playing so I wouldn't play too stiff a reed.
