 Rico Reserve Classics
Author: PT

I have been using Rico Reserve Classics for about six months now, and I have to say that I'm very disappointed/ baffled/ confused. With the past four or so boxes, I have been getting a whistling/ squeaking sound right before a note. I looked at some of the reeds, and many of them have what look like slits towards the tip of the reed. Maybe there is a problem with the mouthpiece or strength of the reed, but I would assume it would be those slits. If this is causing these whistling noises, what causes the slits? Poor reed quality, bad break-in period, improper storage, changes in temperature or humidity? Or possibly, maybe my playing is causing these sounds? If anyone else has had the same problem, what have you done? What are some possible solutions?
