Ronin, your best long-term bet might be to purchase your reeds from a local (or not-so-local) reedmaker who makes the reeds by hand, rather than by machine. Many reed makers are happy to produce a reed to suit your needs, and if you wish not to have this product on your reeds, they would completely understand!

For the record, I have never used fish skin, and if I desperately need something to seal a crack, I use plumbers tape, as Chris described.

I have to admit, when I first saw the topic 'Vegetarian friendly reeds', my first thought was 'don't reeds come from plants?' Silly me didn't think of the rest of the reed!
