 Re: Compensating for Bowed Reeds

FWIW, I dip the reed in a 35mm film holder filled with water about 3/4 of the way up for a few seconds, then massage the tip flat if it isn't already (older reeds tend to crinkle until the moisture is evenly distributed), blot off remaining puddles, and play on it. No prolonged soaking, but the reed is thoroughly moist.
