Interesting observations, Robin.
Last winter, I had terrible trouble with reeds closing up on me -- that's actually what prompted my wiring experiments. I put those reeds away, and when I came back to them this summer, they were just fine. I suspect the weather was the culprit. (Not looking forward to winter coming again!) Have you discovered any cure for this condition, other than wiring?
I also have a new reed that behaves like your "third case" example. At the outset, it seems like one of the best reeds I've ever had, but after just a little while, it starts closing up, or "choking," as you put it. It has done this since the very first time I played it. It lasts through a little bit of playing, and is wonderful, but then closes up as if it were the oldest, most-played-out reed in my box. Have you discovered a fix for this?
I buy reeds, BTW -- do not make them myself, but buy from the same person all the time. Usually, these reeds are very consistent, and very good, which makes these issues that I describe here all the more curious.
