 Re: Compensating for Bowed Reeds

Storing the reeds after use on glass or in a purpose made reed holder will significantly reduce the amount of warping / bowing.
Some advocate letting the reed dry upside does also help.

I tend to combine both approaches by
1. Wiping all excess moisture from reed with fingers after playing
2. Leaving reed to dry upside down for a period
3. Then storing reed in a reed case or on glass.
