Chris, I looked at that site and there are many reeds to choose from, which is always what gets me. I tried a Wiggins that someone said worked well with Rigoutat, and based on the reputation of Euro scrape needing more "bite" than American reeds (I don't "bite" at all, although I do use some muscle to surround the reed and hold it as tightly as needed by pursed lips,) I got a medium soft. Which turned out to be softer than what I normally play on, plus it is unstable making it unusable for me. I'm used to very stable reeds, which you don't have to use a different embouchure for each note you play. yes, you have to put some effort to play in tune, but in general not that big a deal (to a horn player anyway.) (It feels like I wrote this somewhere already but I can't find it if I did.)

"I heard Heinz Holliger's reeds are made by Joongkyo Hong - he used to sell reeds on ebay with Rigoutat or Chiarugi No.2 staples. I use his reeds and they're very consistent, nicely finished and require very little adjusting:

Chris."

So which one of the many reeds on this site do you order and find useful? I already have to deal with extreme dryness and 2500 feet above sea level, but I can afford to try a few different wacky things to see how they turn out. Sea level reeds tend to be flat and resistant, difficult to fix.
