RE: 5RV and reed strength

Without a doubt these Morre' reeds (now) play like a stick of wood. However, I have run them through a ReeDual & using a V-12 as the guide reed, they have played very well after adjustment (allowing that ver few reeds are perfect) That is, they vibrate just fine after being reworked. Of course, considering the price & the fact they have to be reworked ... that spells a poor value. However, I can state that these reeds last a long time, compared to today's commercial reeds.

The 2 1/4 Anches (which were in limited supply last I inquired) did not require any adjustment, except for (minor) balancing. They (now in these leftover batches) are the equivalent of the Vandoren Tradional 3 1/2 to 4 in strength.

Best,
mw

PS - These Morre' reeds make for a _wonderful_ guide reed in the ReeDual and (Robert Dilutis' Reed Machine)
