What kind of reed should I buy?
I'm in Middle School, but I play saxophone for at least 15 hours a week. I've been having trouble playing, recently, because my braces hit my reed while I play and split it. I've been playing for 3 years, and normally a reed lasts me 2-4 weeks. But I've been going through them 1 every day. Rico hasn't been living up to my standards, so I switched to Fredrick L. Helmke. Those last around half of a week for me! I was looking into FiberReeds, but I play nomber 3's, and those run half of a size soft, so i would be playing 2 and a halfs. What should I do?
Ask your orthodontist if the braces can be tightened more regularly so it will go faster. Unfortunately we live in a world where your appearance is just as important as your musicianship.
Hang in there.
