I've been ruthlessly going through my considerable stash of saved-for-later (rejected) reeds in recent week and having binned nearly all of them, can now justify buying some new ones! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
I was disappointed with my last box of Vandorens (traditionals) and had at most four out of ten which were good ones - the rest were either complete duds or just took forever to blow in. I've been browsing a certain online reed supplier and am tempted to try Pilgerstorfer, probably the Dolce type. Has anyone used these and can you tell me how they compare with Vandorens? Also, for anyone using Mitchell Lurie, how do the Premiums differ from the standard ones? I'm aiming for a rich, dark sound which is clear, rather than bright - any further suggestions are most welcome! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clarinet.gif) |

I've never heard of these, and their web site is in German so I'm none the wiser! I'd be interested to know what you think of them if you get them (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clarinet.gif) |
