Out of all the reeds in that list I have had pretty good luck
with three. The Glotin Hand Select Orchestra reeds are the
probably the best. Good cane and a good cut to boot, Vandorens
have the good cut, but the cane is many times green and warps quickly.
The Oliveri reeds are really good as well. The cut is not as good,
niether is the cane. It's a good quality low cost reed, especially
it you get good at fixing up your reeds my hand. And though I've
never tried to the Black Masters, I've been told they are very good
as well.

As long as I have your attention, does anyone know a good supplier for
clarinet blanks. I usually buy mine from Edward Nielsons, but I thought
I would look around.
