A very good video🙂. I took notes and followed your steps and I actually produced a reed that played. Yay. I'm so happy. I'm not sure if it plays in tune but I suppose using these simple but informative videos I will figure it out.
Excellent video! I can highly (!) recommend the "Double Geek" from "Reed Geek" for the final touches on the reed. It's an incredibly fine, accurate little tool for taking off just the right amount of cane without ever having to worry about cutting into the reed or suddenly taking too much off. Try it, you'll like it.
