Re: Reeds dry out very quickly

A few ideas, but first the readers above are correct about the AC.

You can try a cigar humidifier. But they are a pain to carry around. If you have a drill and a drill bit you can take one of those medicine pill bottles, drill a mess of holes in it and then put a wet sponge in it, then rewet it every few days and keep if close to where the reeds are in the case. Or order one of those things string players use called Damp-its I think. Maybe fellow readers know where to order them. It's sort of the same thing as a sponge, just went them every few days.
