So much of the business of instruments, reeds, ligatures, barrels, bells, etc, etc, all is about marketing hype and about the basic insecurity that most players have. We all want to play equipment that enables us to play the best we can as comfortably as possible. I believe that there are subtle differences in equipment and that some can tell while some cannot.

Sometimes it is the sensitivity of the player, sometimes what they need to do. I find that if I am playing something where the parts are pretty straightforward I can often afford to be much less fussy about my reeds than I would be if I am playing something in the repertoire that places great demand on range, dynamics, control etc.

Unfortunately, none of it is magic and the more one practices, the less any of it matters.
