Re: Reed Trim Sand

There are numerous books and articles on reed ajusting - some of them quite contradictory to what is in others!
Some do into great detail about microscopic areas of the reed and it's effect, other treat things rather more generallistically (or wholistically?)
Over the years I read every one I could access and used common sense to help abitrate between the differences.
Try all the techniques suggested that seem sensible to you and find what seems to work best for you - it takes quite some time.
You'll spoil a lot of reeds in the process but that's the only way to learn reed adjustment.

Been trying myself for over 50 years and not fully got there yet.
