I have never thought about slowly breaking in new or newly reformed reeds. A few days ago I bought a Yamaha YCL 24 that came with 12 damaged Vandoren 3 reeds. That gives me an opportunity to do a lot of experimental burning and shaping.These 12 reeds were all squared on the end with 3/16 rounded corners. I duplicated the method this morning on one of those reeds. At first I thought it probably would not be playable. In fact it produced a very broad deep centered tone from top to bottom. I found it easy to brighten or darken notes at will with that reed. This afternoon I plan to extensively test it against burned and regular reeds. For the moment both squared and burned look very promising.
