 Be sure to thoroughly break-in and rotate your reeds.  Do not play each reed for more than a few minutes in the first days of use. 

The acidity content in one’s saliva may negatively affect the life of a reed.  Consider using water to soak your reeds instead. 

Dark spots in the bark of the reed do not indicate that a reed will play poorly.

Always use a mouthpiece cap when the reed is still on the mouthpiece, but not in use.  This prevents reed damage and keeps the reed from drying out.  Do not store your reed on the mouthpiece.

The entire length of the reed vibrates; too much ligature pressure can stifle the vibration, so be careful when tightening the screw(s).

Filed vs. Unfiled—What Does It Mean?

Filed
A reed that goes through one additional cutting process that removes bark from the reed’s shoulders. This allows for faster vibration.

Unfiled
A reed is unfiled when bark from the reed’s shoulders remains intact. Many players enjoy the added resistance of this additional material.
