As I mentioned in the New Member with Clarinet/Saxophone thread, I have a Conn mezzo soprano saxophone. I was inspired by reading the True Tone Alto thread to seek reed suggestions, and here's why:
I inherited the horn with two mouthpieces: the original mouthpiece and an alto sax mouthpiece, which someone lined the inside of with cork (?) so that it would fit on the smaller neck. I assume this was done because of the lack of availability of reeds to fit the mezzo soprano mouthpiece.
I read through some old threads on this forum, and checked a few of the online vendors (i.e. discount reed, 1stopclarinet, usareeds) with no luck.
Short of making my own reeds, which I have zero experience doing, does anyone know where I could find reeds to go with the original mouthpiece? I'd love to try the original setup.
Thanks!
