[Harp-L] 2 draw reed on new MS plates



Hi 
 
I have just recieved some MS plates key of Ab. Began checking reeds for gapping etc and curvature. There seems to be a real problem with the 2 draw. Basically it sounds really weak and doesn't ring like the other reeds. I have tried gapping and profiling the reed to remedy this problem but it isnt really making any difference. 
 
Doe anyone have any advice on why this might be the case, faulty reed, or do i just need to persevere a little more with the gapping etc.? 
 
I have a bit of experience in gapping etc and am not new to it, I usually have good results etc. It just sounds dead in terms of ring and playability. Any thoughts and comment would be great from you techs and customizers. 
 
kind regards
