    Ed Berg I tried Harmon, hahn, Fibercell, legere. not it time for Forestone. Nelson do you recommend softer or harder than a normal cane reed for the Forestone.

    Nelson Garcia I reccomend a harder strength !!! Like maybe size 3 or even 3 1/2 they are very good reeds. I do like them very much!!
