This may be a really DUMB question, but please bare with me. It seems
like my reeds have not been lasting very long before they get "yucky."
I use Vandoren 3- 3 1/2. Could this be attributed to the amount of
humidity (I live in Charleston, can we say 100% humidity!) or is it me?
How long should my reeds be lasting? How can I prolong their
usefulness? THANK YOU!!!
