RE: Suzuki reviews (long)

["Steve Shaw" <moorcot@xxxxxxx>]

From: "G." (writing about Suzuki's spot-welded reeds):

Hi Steve,
   It allows Suzuki to get better tolerances with automated assembly.

Thanks G (and Pat)

I'll harvest and change reeds on my Echos and Sp20s to keep the harps going, 
but I don't bother with Lee Oskars, as, by the time a reed finally gives out 
(years!), I reckon it's time for a new set. (plus they're so much harder to 
remove anyway with my iron-age tools).  If I thought Suzuki Blues Masters 
lasted as long as LOs I wouldn't mind the welded reeds.  Even better if 
replacement reedplates were available.   Maybe I'll give the one I've got a 
really hard ride for a session or three and see what happens.

Cheers!

Steve
