Re: M13 Lyre Reed Matching

Author: kdk ★2017

It's true that M13 Lyre is shorter than M13, but it's still listed as Medium Long - one I have at hand measures 36 (18 mm) on a standard glass with a .0015" feeler, so it still isn't what anyone would probably call a short curve. (The box in my drawer that should hold an M13 seems to be empty, so I don't know what its actual length is, but from Vandoren's description (Long) I'd expect it to be 38.)

Still, to the OP's original point, the only really reliable way to answer questions about what reed to use is for the player to try the likely suspects and decide for himself. So much depends on how you expect a reed to feel and sound. Certainly both V12, 56 Rue Lepic and a lighter VD Traditional, among others, would be worth trying.
