 Re: Vandoren RR200 Glass Reed Resurfacer And Reed Stick

Hi,

I have bought a copy of "Handbook for making and adjusting single reeds" by Kalmen Opperman, and have been trying the advice in with my vandoren glass Resurfacer kit.

It seems to have worked very well. I just adjusted a 3 strength Vandoren V12 reed. At the start it was too hard to play and by the end I could play it well through all the registers right up to D6. I just sanded the flat side a bit all over and then took a little bit off the shoulders so that the low registers would play more freely. I avoided taking anything off the tip because I wanted the high registers to sound easily and really ring. It seems to have worked (so far, touch wood).

I think maybe for people who are starting out at adjusting reeds like me then this book and the vandoren Glass Reed Resurfacer might be a good place to start.

Jen
