WOW! Great info. Thanks all so far.... Oh, I know well the importance of a sharp knife. I'm pretty good at that...use a diamond stone and ceramic stone to get the desired results. I've gotten the hang of scraping reeds and finishing them, though what has been the most annoying part is I take my problem reeds to my teacher who says, that's a bad gouge...that's too soft cane, etc., hence the reason I am trying to be in more "control" here...or hope to be at the start. I am defintely going to stick to these two products and not try to throw anything else into the equation that just complicate things.
Dutchy, thanks so much for your offer on the handmade reeds. I have seen your recommendations on threads in the past and shall keep those in the back of my mind if all else fails. One thing I have found annoying lately with some of these places that sell the nice handmade reeds is their backlog in getting them to you. I called one of the reputable ones recently and they said, "I can get you your reeds in three months...but, if you want it next week, add $100". LOL! I'm already off topic here but have others encountered this too?!? Man, this makes me want to get real good at making reeds and perhaps I can quit my day job!
Thanks again all! You are all most helpful and I'm glad to hear you like my teacher's choice in gadgets.
Jay
