 Re: English Horn Shaper Tips

I had thought about getting a different bocal, but I already have the heaven-sent no-name bocal that has impressed people who play English horn professionally. I have a Hiniker bocal that I don't play because it sounds worse than my no-name. Finding a bocal I like as much as this one sounds like more work than finding a different shape that I like. Plus, if I can find a wider shape that I can get to play in tune, the reeds I make will probably have more color to the sound.

I don't "fight" reeds, I craft them. I am trying to perfect my craft.
