Re: How Does Legere Control Strength

Legere reeds are NOT molded. They are made by laying down strips of the plastic material. The strength is determined by variation in the plastic formula. When Guy originally launched them at cfest 98 his prototypes had numerous strength grades- I recall at least 4 or 5 steps between each half strength. This allowed the selection of a Reed of very exact strength, but that many options was not practical for production or marketing.
