Subj: Vintage Reeds

I recently had the opportunity to try a box of Vintage Reeds.
I just wanted to share my findings.

They are harder than my v-12's. The ad said to order 1/2
strength softer than you normally use. I whole heartedly agree.

The reeds seem to be cut very consistently. Almost every reed
out of the box was identical. They do have a darker sound than
the V-12's.

The cane is very dense. Nice solid piece of wood.

As for how long they last, I'll have to let you know!
