I would definitely say that Yamahas are very reed-friendly (I swear, I'm not a rep for them or anything, I just really like the instruments!). I find that they have the ability to compensate for the most commonly poorly-made aspects of a reed. I've personally found that Lorees are very difficult to make reeds for. I know that Dick Woodhams (Philadelphia) recommends that his students buy a Loree to make reeds for (because you have to make the perfect reed) and then buy a Yamaha to actually play on, because they cover up so much! Interesting idea...
