Lots of comment on this subject lately. Many remarks concerning the Bonade.
I wonder if those on the list have views on the Gigliotti. Am I in error,
or does it operate in a manner similer to the Bonade only using more
deformable plastic rather than rigid metal?

Also, have seen a reed holder made of a length of Velcro-faced fabric. Any
comments about this as a method that would seem to be sort of a modern
version of the "wrap with string" of old?
