I have used both profiles with my clarinet, and prefer the 'Quebec' design.
It is appreciably thicker through the heart of the reed, and narrower (side to side) at the tip.
I would add 1/4 strength to your current reed when ordering.
They do not * sigh * last forever.
After three months of extensive Wednesday night practices, my 3 3/4 gave up the ghost. It's much as when a natural reed fades... I found myself struggling at the top reach of my range.
Almost criminal what some of those composers demand of us old guize.
