Sound Supreme Chanter Reeds
Description Sound Supreme Chanter Reeds
Made by John Elliott. This reed produces a bright, crisp sound with minimal blowing in. These reeds tend to be a little easier than other makes. Great for players that want instant tone with an easy blowing reed. Available in medium and easy strengths. Shipped humidified and ready to play.
Helpful Tips:
-when you receive your reeds, slightly dampen them &, if necessary, pinch the sound box. Pinching will ease it & allow easier blowing-in experience. You may pinch the reed ocasionally to maintain the ease of blowing.
-if, after pinching, the reed is still too strong, you may need to slightly scrape the blades of the lay (the top half of the reed). Do only a little at a timeand evenly on each side. Use a very sharp utility knife and scrape lightly. A rubber band (3/16" diameter & force 4 oz) placed just above the black hemp wil ease the reed too.
-if you find the reed is flat on the 'F', pinch the reed; applying rubberbands may help too. If you have this problem with an easier reed, you can trim the tips of the blades with a very sharp knife.

I\'ve found these reeds to be easy to use and they are very free blowing. They do seem to blow out a bit quicker than a Troy but overall they are an excellent value. Good reed, October 30th, 2008 09:27 pm
