Oh, but you'll be SERIOUSLY detuning the reed.  Just be prepared to 
retune afterwards.

  But, won't you have to scratch the reed to re-tune, then polish out the new scratches, re-tune, re-polish, re-tune, etc, etc?  Where does it all end.  With a weaker reed????  Or ... can you polish the end of the reed or the near the revet (or weld) to re-tune the reed after the initial polishing.  Just wondering.
