Roger, this intrigues me a little. I haven't played on any but the
close-tipped end of the Vandoren line, and I haven't done any more than
slight facing adjustments. What variables differ among the Vandoren models
that cause one to "face up very nicely" and another not to "reface well
compared to other Vandoren models?" Or is it just that some of the facings
make better (easier) starting points for the particular facings you
generally put on them yourself?
