Greg Smith says: <<The Frank Kaspar (Chicago, Cicero) style that I make has a tip opening similar to his most successful symphonic facings - around 1.1 mm - and they
have a flat table. >>

Walter said: Greg, what strength reed do you advise for this facing/model? A Vandoren V-12 4? or harder?

Greg said: I always advise a medium strength reed - V12 3.5 - to a medium facing (such as this).

Walter says: Of course, Greg, I misread 1.1 mm as 1.01 mm. DUH, my mistake.........
