Re: Pomarico with legere european

Ok, but let's try to maintain an accurate description of what is happening. The Legeres are NOT wearing out in that the material is fraying or breaking. In MY case (still not confirmed with Kim6141) but rather the reeds are being encouraged to bend at the point where reed and mouthpiece separate so that the effective strength is lessened.

BIG DIFFERENCE

I have just done that old cane trick of pushing back the tip area of the reed with the table of the mouthpiece with some success. Though I prefer the issue not even come up (I think it may say more about HOW we are playing rather than the reeds themselves).
