I picked up a Ponzol M1 from a friend and I knew from the beginning that it has the sound I like. My prob is that a reed plays good for 15 minutes, then gets harder and harder response until it will warp completely. So bad for me if I play 20 minutes , set the horn down and then blow and get nothing. I have two gigs this weekend and broke my other piece so I'm using my plasticover reeds that won't warp on a table to get through. I'd like to fix this without losing that tone that I like. I have had pieces refaced by many, many guys and they do the job to get it to play but inevitabaly the tone usually gets much brighter. So, the piece plays but way too bright. I kniw that theres a guy in the east bay who took over Jay Clarks business. Anybody have his email or shop number? If I can be there with the guy, blow and show him the tone that I like maybe he can fix it without changing it too much> Thanks K
