Hi Goodwinds,
I'm glad to add what I can to the board. As a new oboist (18 years woodwinds and habitual studying reed maker), I've been doing lots of experimenting and exploring. Unfortunately I have not been trained except for study books and the Bboards, but I make up for it in sheer volume of reedmaking. I don't quite know how yet, but it does seem that cane makes a world of difference. I bought Gonzales and Pisoni cane the same day, and used them on the same amount of staples, and I seemed to go through the Pisoni cane quite a bit faster than the Gonzales cane. As I say, I don't know why. Maybe I just messed up more tips on the Pisoni cane than Gonzales, but at any rate, I'll just stick with Gonzales, even if it's just a "luckier" brand of cane for me.
