 Reed "crow" with a REALLY high pitched squeak
Author: JRJINSA 
Date:   2007-11-20 01:51

This is the best I can describe my current reed problem -

I made a reed that was a bit flat, raucus, and blew too easily. To "fix" the problem, I clipped the tip. I then redid the tip a bit to focus the tone and the reed plays a smidge better but still isn't right and the crow has a horrid *REALLY* high squeak to it. Forming a really round emboucher makes it play a C but the crow itself is bad.

What would you do next? What causes this high squeak?

Thanks in advance for any input.

Jay
