Maybe you'll have more luck with a cane reed. Good luck!Ben Brittonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15168800131826822235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7197152665905718639.post-66171271983107968842010-11-21T08:01:29.462-08:002010-11-21T08:01:29.462-08:00Hi Ben

Having said that I have one on my baritone and use it with a Legere reed and that is brilliant. I may try a few more reed combinations and see if I can make it sound as good as the Baritone.Dave Plummerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04030458554354428391noreply@blogger.com
