Hey Kinya,

Just wanted to let you know that I am really enjoying your Marine Band University series.  I am taking what I have learned in this series. and attempting to upgrade a twelve hole Marine Band that I purchased many years ago.

Thanks so much for posting all this great information.  I look forward to any more segments you may post in the future.

Homer.

Hello Homer, we are pleased you find the Marine Band University lessons helpful.

Reed Sizing

Hi Kenya,

In your series on reed slot sizing, ie embossing the reed slots, you provide a link to Seydel where I presume you were recommending their reed sizing tool.  Before I take the plunge, I just wanted to make sure that that is still your recommendation.

Thanks for your help.

Homer.
