Amanda,

You can add me to the list of people getting imballanced Van Dorens. And I
thought it my mouthpiece!

Does anyone have any advice on how to take what seems like guesswork out of
finding the precise point at which a reed is not vibrating? I'm sure it's
nothing more than gaining experience, but I can sure think of better things to
do wtih $1.40 than slamming it into a wall out of frutstration, and throwing it
in the garbage!

Just wondering.
