Re: Short scrape vs Long scrape reeds

I was just about to ask this! Or similar.

My question is.. I love lomg scrape reeds. Thwy are a joy to play.. But i have tried medium hard long scrape on a range of oboes.. And my third octave is always wildly out of tune.

However medium soft to medium howarth academy (euro scrape) reeds are almost perfectly intune.. No matter whose oboe i put them in.. But i dont enjoy playing with them so muvh.

I figure that so many americans use long scrape so in muat be doing something wrong that my third octave is so sharp when i use them!
