I really like the Fibracell reeds and even though they look like cane, they are not. It looks like a mix of epoxy and "aramid" fibers molded together. I don't know how they got the color match with cane, but it looks good and plays fine.
I bounce back and forth with M30 and M30 Lyre mouthpieces with the 2.5 and 3 Fibracell reeds and they are working very well for me. I cannot hit G6 with confidence, but everything else is in tune up and down the compass.
Today, I pulled out an M15 and blew right up to G6 with ease on a #3 Fibracell, but that combo wore me out after 20 minutes, so I am not ready to use it in a full 90 minute rehearsal just yet.
I just received a #3 Legere, so I will give it a try soon.
SunnyDaze - Thanks for the nice thoughts. This has been an experience I hope no one ever has to deal with. But it was very inspiring to sit in my recliner at the infusion center and watch many others who were in worse shape than me go through their treatments with smiles and good humor. We were all in it together in the middle of the Covid pandemic. I hope everyone else had a better Christmas than I did. <LOL>
