Re: venn 2 synth reed for bass clarinet

Dan,

Are you beta-testing these Venn bass clarinet reeds? AFAIK Venn bass clarinet reeds still aren't officially offered at this time, unless you are using the tenor Venn reeds on bass clarinet.

And since you've mentioned Legere Euro- I've found that Legere American Cut Tenor reeds to work better than the actual Legere Euro bass reeds on my Fobes bass pieces, and Walter Grabner also explicitly recommends Legere ACs for his mouthpieces as well. In terms of size/hardness Legere ACs are more or less the same to the Vandy V12s i.e. 1/4 strength harder than Vandy Blue Box or D'Addario Reserve(my current go-to reeds), but tonally closer to the latter 2 IMO.
