Let's say you know for sure that the squeak is due to the back of the reed being warped and nothing else. I have a sure fire way to make a permanent fix. It works every time. Take the thick part of the reed between your thumb and forefinger and hold it up to the light, closely examining the tip to determine balance. Then forcefully push the tip of the reed against a hard surface so that the tip breaks smartly. A music stand, the bell of your clarinet, for your neighbor's forehead will work equally well. Then loudly exclaim, OH NO, and throw the reed away since it wasn't ever worth fiddling with anyway.
I am not associated with any reed making or reed tweaking companies.
