I've been playing on medium-hard Fibracell reeds for a few years and recently ordered new ones from WW&BW. They only offer Fibracell Premier, now, so I thought I'd go with the #3's. When I tried them they sounded very buzzy, so I ordered #3.5's. Same results.
Has anyone else found that the premiers have a distinct buzziness compared the original Fibracell reeds? Can they be adjusted, somehow?

Hello!
You should try Legere Signature or Forestone reeds, they sound great, better than Fibracell...

The guy that makes the fibercell reeds is up there in age and he really doesn't have anyone testing the reeds everyday or even weekly. These reeds are a hit and miss. Almost all of them are a miss and expect to do some adjusting. The reeds aren't even flat on the bottom.
