Do a search on this one, crab bait. The general agreement around here seems to be their use is limited to high performance machines for durability/driveability issues.

Replacing Boysen reeds every couple of years is only true if you don't have a "lean sneeze". Get a "lean sneeze" and replace 'um right then.<br /><br />c/6<br /><br />hooty
