 Tie Length
Author: mjfoboe

Hi,

I have been experimenting with the tie length on the staple.

I realize the if you tie the cane "shorter in overall length" you get more belly in the reed.

I find the extra belly gives a more resonant core sound.

Once again, tie length can change the characteristics of a specific shaper tip.

Comments?

PS: I am still experimenting adjusting a reed with an emery board on the sides as well as adjusting the tip, blend, heart, etc.......... You can make a reed more parallel - rectangular etc.... or any other shape! All course this works best with a wider shaper tip.
