Richard Plaster Reed Collection 81 (1981)
Reed Number:81
Year:1981
Measurements:
Description:Prestini straight 2, 8/10/81, Dherin '56 cane, LK profile, rough sound originally, corners wouldn't close. When the extreme edges were scraped down the tone smoothed out and it sounded good, but the fit on the crook was poor. Both the flare and the roughness of the inside were involved. Blades were slightly displaced, and too much wood was removed from the back and the "channels" before I found out how to smooth the tone out. (by getting the corners to close first).
Maker:Prestini
Reference:Richard Plaster
Instrument:Bassoon
