David - just a thought. Why MUST we all learn to adjust reeds. When reeds were first used, they just came as soft, medium, hard, so they HAD to be adjusted. Nowadays we have the technology to grade them in 1/10 increments (which was a surprise to me). Most of us amateurs, I'm sure, would be happy finding a reed strength we are most happy with, and buying just a few increments either side. If in size 3, there were strengths from 2.5 to 3.5, and we preferred reeds 3 to 3.5, why should we have to buy the half we don't want? There is a big difference between a 2.5 and a 3.5 reed. (or would the box contain 2 of each reed between 3 and 3.5?)
