Check
the reed problems we cover:
1. The tone is stuffy or unclear throughout all registers.
2. I can't get a clear tone - the reed seems to hiss throughout the
range and I have difficulty getting the notes above top C.
3. The reed is far too hard and it is extremely difficult to produce
any sound at all.
4. The bottom notes are unresponsive and difficult to play quietly.
(Click on the illustration above.)
5. Notes around middle E are hard to produce, are unclear and feel
generally "stuffy".
6. Tonguing and staccato are poor or difficult. The tone in
the middle register is generally a little fuzzy.
7. Notes in the top octave are fuzzy or unresponsive.
8. The reed squeaks without warning.
9. The reed was fine, but is now too soft, with the tip extremely
thin or even damaged.
10. The tone is raspy and lacks richness.
11. The saxophone sounds flat on all notes despite tuning adjustments.
In any box of saxreeds only one or two will play
with little trouble. Cane being a natural substance will vary, whilst
the machine's cut will not. If you know what to do, you can make
all your reeds work just as well.
Don't throw reeds away too soon. With a
little "carpentry" or clipping, you can give your reed a new
lease of life. When a reed plays up in rehearsal or concert, your Saxophone
Reed Doctor will get you out of trouble.
