Self made reeds last a lot, lot longer then the manufactured reeds. I have
know players to use a hand-made reed for over 2 months where a store bought
reed will last 2-3 weeks if that.

A few years ago I had my entire University of Richmond clarinet studio
make reeds.
Is there a reason (other than the pleasure of craftsmanship) for a
clarinetist to make his or her own reeds -- as opposed to merely
adjusting store-bought reeds?
