Found a perfect reed for my soprano!

[-TH]

I just bought a HR Yanagisawa 6 for my soprano sax. First I tried few Vandoren blue box 2.5's on it. VERY stuffy and resistant. Nice sound though. Sometime ago I got some old reeds from a friend for free. Slapped a Prestini #3 on the mpc. Wow! Just the right amount of resistance, full sound and easy to control. I have only few of these left and I'm already worried what to do when they run out!?!?! Who sells Prestini (USA) reeds or which reed is equivalent? I also tried some Rico Royal 2.5's on it but they were too soft. Much more thinner and brighter sounding than the Prestini.

Help! ;)
