I AM A COLLEGE STUDENT AND ON AN AVERAGE PLAY 3-4 HOURS A DAY.
I AM HAVING TROUBLE FINDING A REED THAT WILL LAST FOR ANY LENGH OF TIME.
ALTHOUGH I CONDITION THE REEDS BEFORE USING THEM, THEY STILL GET WATER LOGGED.

PRESENTLY I AM PLAYING ON VANDORAN V-12 BUT AM LOOKING FOR SUGGESTIONS ON
DIFFERENT REEDS AND ALSO OTHER WAYS TO CARE FOR THEM.

ALSO IS THERE ANY REAL ADVANTAGE TO OILING THE BORE OF A CLARINET.

THANKS.
