Re: 1-1/2 rico reed too soft?

"This morning I decided to try the #2 rico reed again and ya know, I had no problems with it. It felt slightly more resistent at first but after a few minutes of playing I didn't notice it anymore. I'm going to try and use a #2 from now on."

I think that two (well now, three) days of playing an instrument you have never played before is a bit premature to start replacing equipment. I would give it at least a few weeks to see how it goes. Then, if you do not end up getting a teacher I would take it in to a reputable tech if you are still having problems. Better to invest money fixing leaky keys before replacing mp's. Been there, done that.
