Fernie,



I cannot say that the space between rails has any affect on the perceived strength of the reed. I have used the Legere German cut reeds on Boehm mouthpieces with great success. In fact the only difference in reed strength from the mouthpieces I usually use on Boehm vs my Wurlitzer Oehler mouthpiece is that I wind up going up a quarter strength for the German mouthpiece.


I also (and I say this as a die hard short facing guy) would take issue with the assertion that shorter facings allow better upper register performance. In general a good medium facing will offer the best overall resonance for all registers (and keep the altissimo from getting too "squeaky"). For Legeres though I find that shorter facings tend to prevent me from pushing them into a state where they become too weak before their time. So besides my tendency to prefer the "feel" of a short facing, I use them the get longer life out of my Legeres.
