vboboe, thanks for this thread!
Regarding the inverted "V", I am definitely in the "A2" camp so that explains our differences.
Thanks for the detailed answers to my questions. Interesting that you leave a 2mm-wide strip of bark down the back of your reed! I strip the shiny bark, but leave a narrow line (less than .5 mm) of inner bark down the spine. Sometimes I eat into that more than I should.
regarding my "point 6" - I am referring to any note that is played. According to fourier analysis, any continuous wave can be analyzed as a sum of sine-waves of varying frequencies (multiples of the fundamental frequency). The character of the note (the "quality of the sound" if you will) is determined by the amplitudes (size) of each of these sinusoidal components. The lowest component is referred to as the "fundamental", and the other components are usually called "partials" or "harmonics" (at least, that is the terminology I am used to).
To see Fourier analysis at work (and also to play with adding and subtracting different frequency components) there is a great little java applet here:
