As for not being a blower -- maybe you actually are but don't know it yet. My degree was in violin, which makes me a scraper. Followed by classical guitar, and found out my hands too small and nervous to be very good at that. Followed by the (French) horn because of love of the sound, and realized I never should have been a scraper to start with!!! Followed by the tuba, even though I am small, fantastic fun to be able to make all that noise with so little effort, plus being able to sing contrabass as a female, though that bunch of metal tubing. Then, once again because of the sound, oboe -- and yes it did take quite a level of effort and three years of private lessons with an excellent instructor, but I reached a level where I enjoy my own playing and can include it on my list of things enjoyable to keep working on. So maybe try a few lessons with your local pro (to get good reeds AND good instruction) and maybe you'll find yourself a friend in that nice instrument that you have.
