 Re: Eliminating extra high partials in reed

Interesting theory, but I don't think it's that; they're generally pretty easy blowing. I've been playing daily again for a year now, and I went through a 3-4 month period where I played on embarrassingly soft reeds, which were correspondingly closed, weak, and thin.

If I think about it, the biggest difference between those and what I've been trying to work with lately is that the soft ones had overly thin hearts. It's just now, one out of every 3 or so otherwise usable reeds will have this high partials problem despite being pretty good in every other respect (for my low standards anyway)
