Hi,

Thanks to all who responded to my question.

I play a Marigaux 901.... so it's not a Loree problem.

The reed is not too open ....it is actually narrow. I'll have to check the over lap though.

I have a feeling it might be due to the gouge ..... I have a recurrent problem ... that after about 10 months of "light" gouging ... the cane does not easily gouge and the machine needs to be serviced again!

In the past every time I reached that point with the gouger ... the subsequent reeds were very very poor!

I'll try changing the single radius blade and see what happens. Each piece of cane from this gouged batch made very poor reeds indeed.

Comments?

Mark
