Re: Forestone Premium

You are not answering the question why water getting where you say it is? With the premium reed I have, it was due to not being flat. If this came from the manufacturer like this that is one thing but perhaps it did change over time. As I sanded to make it flat, the surface lost its sheen. Perhaps then it is more porous. At this point the water tended not to form droplets but actually went into the reed. Maybe it is the filings that were taking up the water. I'm not sure. I am not finding this with the rest of the Forestone reeds. It is only the Premium.
