Ashley --


I think different makers have different definitions of "student" reeds. Sometimes it means that the reed does not have all the refinements in the windows or the tip that would be noticeable to a more-experienced player -- a simpler scrape. Other times, it means it is not as resistant as the "pro" reed. Sometimes it is both of those things! Usually, the student reed is less-expensive, too.

My philosophy is that I want the best possible reed, from whatever maker I am using. That usually means the "pro" reed. Once you have come to the point where you can reliably sound all the notes on the instrument, there is no reason, imo, to fool around with anything else.

Susan
