 Oiling reeds-my conclusions one month later
Author: ruben

After oiling my reed(s) for a month, I can honestly say that this practice works. Why had I never heard of this before? I find: 1. The reeds last longer. 2. They vibrate more evenly. 3. Water doesn't stick to the bottom of them any longer, so you can bid good-bye to all gurgling.
I've been using rosemary oil, which also disinfects the reed, but I suppose other types of oil would work just as well (snake-oil, cannabis oil, etc.). Allow me to thank the person that orginally brought up the subject.
