Here is a little trick I learned years ago from a friend. This is a simple reed prep technique that you can do before you wet or play your reeds. Again - dry reeds. I do not do this with a wet reed. This is the only reed preparation or modification I do to my reeds before I begin breaking them in. I will do another video about reed breaking in little while. Let me know if you do anything to your reeds BEFORE you wet and begin playing them. I'd be interested in hearing your process. Thanks for watching, please subscribe, and enjoy.
