Chuck and I are close in Milwaukee. We do some work together and he plays a 
couple of clubs within blocks of my home.

When my daughter was going to take up clarinet, I went to Chuck to ask what I 
should set her up with.

He told me to get her a plastic Vito with a Van Doren M13 mouthpiece and he 
was singing praises of this Legere reed. So, of course, I took his advice to 
the letter.

Although Kimberly never gained any kind of prowess on this instrument before 
moving over to piano and drums, she had the best sound of anyone in the 
school.

I would recommend those reeds to anyone.

Hope this helps!
