 Re: T sax reeds on bass clarinet

I understand exactly what you mean there Thomas - I know too many people that like the bass clarinet to sound like a chainsaw, but I prefer the full, thick, deep and reedy tone in the low register and the almost pure sine wave-like tone when played at ppp and subtone levels, and also the broad, round tone of the upper register - not a thin buzz.

Only thing with the Pomarico mouthpieces is the tip is more curved than the reed tip on Vandorens, but I can still get a good seal.

The shape of the Vandoren reed tip curve fits my Lawton sax mouthpieces perfectly.
