reed preference

I was wondering what the general preference was towards reeds. I hear of Binci and Salpa, and it seems that Binci is the more popular. If so, why?

Thanks.

Re: reed preference

Yo Bryan! Jr. Martin was telling me that one of those two brands is no longer. I wish I could remember which one. Duhhhh. I forgets.

Regardless, I think you are splitting hairs -- they are both excellent number 1 reeds. You'll have folks tell you one is better than the other, much like any debate where you pair 2 top of the line products together.

Binci's are still in production, so are the Salpa's but under the name of Voici's.
