 Re: Guide for Cane, Staples, Shapers would be useful

Yup, for sure each setup is different for each person. But I think a guide even in the VAUGEST sort of way is better than utter crapshoot experimentation. I'm slightly better now, but at the beginning, I really felt disabled that there was so little to go on. Maybe it's because I'm a scientist, but I didn't like to go about it without an educated guess. :-P

The other day I asked my teacher about cane and a brand came by as a passing thought.... Teacher: "that's an unbelievably hard cane I can't play on" ..... then came the sudden realization that ... Me: "duh, that's probably why those reeds don't work". You may ask why I didn't ask my teacher first, that's because it was for the baroque oboe, and I was just going on recommendation. But had I known that this was unbelievably hard cane (from a list) I would have nixed the idea of buying this type and gone for something I think might have been better for me.
