Ya Ferm.. when I spoke to him on the phone he was upright and said as much about the length of time he's been making them. Actually gave me a brief history of his company, etc. Good ol boy, nice to talk to. These reeds are a new material he's using, not the standard 3 or 4 layer printed circuit board stuff that Boysen is using. It's designed at it's manufacture to flex, and it's a super fine 5 layer weave, so there's a lot less fatigue. I called TDR and couldn't get through, so after almost an entire day of getting the answering maching I said f this and called CCMS. It's gonna be interesting to see how these things work. Maybe I'll have to do the job again with TDR's, or maybe we'll have a new source to reeds.. I'll keep everyone updated as time passes. His prices are certainly better.. almost half of Boysens price and more than half of TRD's. I figure it's worth the gamble. If I can get the preformance on these that you get on your TDR's I figure I'm ahead of the game. If not I can always switch them out and chalk it up to experience.
