Subj: [kl] advice on Legere Reeds
Date: Tue, 28 Nov 2000 15:11:24 -0500

Hi!
I almost asked for "opinion on Legere Reeds" but that would be redundant in
this maillist ;)

Here is my question(s):
1. what hardness should I look for, I am currently using Ciccone Symetricut
3s,
and anticipating moving to 3 1/2 for better tone.
2. at $13.00 do they last 10 times longer?
3. tone, brightness, etc?
4. 35 years ago, plastic reeds needed no warm-up, and chipped only under
extreme abuse. Is this still true?
5. Will I need the sandpaper/reedknife to make the response even?
6. what else can I ask to cause controversy?

best wishes,
terry
