You should get a LOT of answers to this... and they may not all agree!

Even if you buy reeds from ANY source, do find a competent player/teacher to show you how to 'adjust' them to your own playing.

I would recommend a professional reed-maker who offers a return policy; but (as one of them has written), if you have definite preferences about the scrapte, hardness, timber, etc, LET THEM KNOW at the time you order.

A well-made reed can last longer than a 'quickie', so find someone who takes pride in their work.

As to the scrape styles (French, German, American), I will let a more competent reed-maker than myself tackle that one. We all have our preferences: learn what YOURS are before you pay over $20 for a reed.

warmly, with good wishes in your search,
mary
