This may seem like a dumb question, but should one invest in a reed case? In
my box of 10 Grand Concert Select Thick reeds, there is a fold-out billfold
section where the reeds are tucked in individual slots. If I get a reed
holder, what kind of material do I want it to be made out of? Should there
be a sponge (dessicant? whatever that is) or anything to check and keep
reeds in good shape? I live in Iowa by the way. What about a
Hygrometer,etc? Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris
