My entire setup is
A Yamaha 72CS
A Woodwind Company Mouthpiece
Luyben Ligature
Mitchell Lurie 4 1/2
I tried some 3 1/2 and 4's today and just keep squeaking.
The 4 1/2 seem like the right strength. I have a pretty clamp-like
embasure (sp?).
I have always used harder reeds than most of my skill over the years.

Of course, this is relative to the mouthpiece, ligature, and brand =
reed you are<br>> using. Still, that does sound pretty hard. =
