Over the past weeks I have been sampling the many reeds I have worked on, saved and/or used over the past two or three years. When I say kinds, I don't mean strengths--I often tried two or three strengths of each kind. (especially since some have quarter and + strengths) I had three kinds of Vandorens, four kinds of Legeres, two kinds of Marcas, two kinds of Ricos, and $120 worth of Forestones.
There were some real winners in the Vandoren and RIco piles but at the end of the day, the Legere Signature Series really rule on my Grabner K11*with Rovner MKIII ligature.
Now the trick is to force myself not to touch the cane reeds.
It is an obsession!
