Firstly it must be understood that using a set up that is as easy to play as possible IS the priority as long as you are able to play competently.


My more recent bouts with strength were about five years ago as I was finding the right strength for Legere reeds. The issues that came up for me were that the strengths that were just too weak caused the system to "collapse" within hours. Once I reached a strength that lasted for a full day of rehearsals and performances, I felt I was there. That did included a few concerts where I pushed beyond the limit of the strength I was using and things closed off at high volume. I adjusted up another quarter strength and was back in business. It all comes down to finding what works.


If you are playing for yourself and you can achieve all the musical requirements that suit your needs......that is the correct reed strength for your set-up.
