Subj: RE: [kl] black spot on reed
Date: Tue, 4 Feb 2003 00:17:27 -0500

I hope not, as I still use mine :-)... I asked becuase mine used to
leave a dark "scuff" mark on my reed (not mold, thankfully) if I pushed
the reed in too far. The mark showed up at the thickest part of the
reed that the clip made contact with.

Diane, Are the metal ones bad? I do sometimes use a metal reedholder
that
really is for saxophone reeds. I now have a case with glass slides in
it
that stinks also. The glass is just barely long enough for the reeds
and if
I'm in a hurry and push a micrometer too far, I break the tips. I also
dropped it and the latch promptly broke. Does anyone have a suggestion
for
me? I've been looking for one I like but so far haven't found the
perfect
one for me.

She isn't by any chance using one of the old metal reedguards, is she?

The black spot is on the front, not the back flat side of the reed. She
is using Rico Reeds.
