Re: Legere Euro Spec Reed

From my limited experience with the CF and the Legere Euro Signatures, I think the #3.75 may be a little too soft for the facing. You may get better intonation from a #4. I have found that the flatness I've run into with Legeres in general is most problematic above D6. To play those notes in tune, I need to use my closest-tipped mouthpiece (a Gigliotti P, tip .98mm with a 19 mm curve) with a #4.25 Euro.

I'm wondering, though, (a) whether the 67 mm barrel was original with the R13 Prestige and (b) whether of not you're getting the same result with your Bb clarinet with its original barrel and the CF. I didn't think R13 As (or Bbs) were shipped with 67 mm barrels.
