Amen to that, vboboe!
I can't tell you how many reeds I went through, of all sorts, as a beginner, trying to find some that would work the way I thought they were supposed to work. I started thinking that everybody made their reeds too hard and out of tune.
Then, over time, I developed a much better embouchure. After one particular embouchure modification took hold, I was astounded to find that I actually had a bunch of pretty good reeds in my case -- the problem was me, not the reeds.
Now, although I do have a favorite reedmaker, many different reeds "work" for me.
