I have been using the European cut, 3.75 for almost 2 years with a Clark Fobes Mouthpiece. These are great reeds. My former metal ligatures, the Vandoren Optum and Bonade weren't great with these reeds. The Rovner Dark works great. I plan to order the French Cut based upon this podcast. I love this podcast. The material is so relevant, and the questions asked are awesome. Thank you!

I love Legere reeds for contrabass clarinets.
Are the size numbers comparable to the European cut?
Why do some people say that a mouthpiece is or is not suited to a synthetic reed?
I like Legere except in the altissimo range. It's weak up there.
