I use both Vandoren Trad and V12, depending on various things (the piece I'm
playing, how I'm feeling that day, and just rotating reeds in practise).
For now, though, I think some work on my embouchure would make much more
difference than an ED ligature at twice the price of my current Mark III
Custom!

Thanks, though, for an independent opinion that says it is more than a star
tie-in. ;-)
