The Oboe BBoard

Pre-tying question

Author: WoodwindOz  Date:   2014-04-14 20:34 I had no idea how to shorten this into a title... What is the consensus on scraping the bark on the ends of the cane before tying on? (I'm referring to the cane at the staple end.) I know there are some players who swear by it and others who insist it should never be done (we had quite a heated debate about it in studio awhile back). I've tried it once or twice, and maybe it was coincidence, but the cane cracked every time when I tried to tie on. I don't do it currently, but from an aesthetic point of view it would look tidier, but I want to know others' opinions on the effects it has other than appearance. And for those who do it, are there any special considerations? Rachel
