 Favorite store-bought/online reeds?

Seeing as I'm on the hunt again for a consistent oboe reed,I'm wondering what some of your favorite oboe reeds are to get some ideas.After leaving the oboe for a year or so,I came back to finding my favorite Marlin Lesher reeds to be quite horrible.(One reed was a tone flat,the other reed blew out after one note.Of course it probably is just one of those bad ones in a bunch,but oh well.)

So now I'm in need of a consistent oboe reed provider that won't take too much out of my parent's wallet.And I did try the bigger websites such as wwbw or musiciansfriend,but their reeds all seem to be sold out(except the Gower one,which apparently is a bit too much for my parents.)

So what are your favorite oboe reeds(or just some reeds that you find consistent?)

(Btw,is the Gower reed worth the 21 dollars?)

And no,I have no idea how to make or fix oboe reeds.



Oh yeah,what is the difference between French,American,and German style reeds?
