Re: Are Alto Clarinet and Alto Sax Reeds the same?

I recall reading that historically - like back 19th and early 20th century - one of the alto's reeds, I cannot recall whcih know, was like 1mm or 2mm shorter in length to the other alto instrument.

But seems modern-manufacture alto sax and alto clarinet reeds are the same length, at least those few I have bothered to compare.

I'm with the others, experiment and if they work then so be it.
