Subj: [DR-L] Fibre Reed review
Date: Thu, 08 May 2008 14:42:36 -0400

Hi everyone,

As promised, I just received the fibre reed from Charles Double Reed
and I gave it a go and this is what I think of it:

- The reed SUCKS big time!! (IMHO)

Anyone has any questions just shoot away and i'm more than willing to
video tape myself playing that reed and show you how it sounds like.

On the brighter side, I did call Brian Charles himself and talked for
a bit about his reeds and the fibre reed. I told him how a lot of us
over here were talking about it and wanted to find out how good/bad it
is. Funny enough, he himself said and I quote "wouldn't let my
daughter play on that reed."

Question, has anyone tried his regular cane reeds by any chance? I got
two of his reg. cane reeds as well. There's something I might wanna
talk about but later.
