 Re: reeds - which side?

I usually play the reed with the twisted wire end on top, or the 'A' side as I like to call it, but sometimes the same reed will play better on the 'B' side over time.

I generally play on the side which is easier to play on, more responsive across the range and in tune, and use the twisted wire as the guide so I know which side is which.
