Dear Barry - Just a thought - you might find it productive to try some American scrape reeds - these generally have considerably less resistance to them. The scrape is long and they are not wired . You could start with student ones and if they suit, then you could get slightly harder ones. I have been playing on a modified version of this scrape for the last 20 or so years. You do need a lot more relaxed embouchure though, and your lower abdomen is from where most of the adjustment is done. Those Rico ones, from memory were mass produced by machine, and blowed with very little resistance. if you could get a good sound with those, hats off to you. Kindest regards from Cabramatta.
