My reed in my S. Gallagher D-chanter is behaving very funny and have a real weak D. after trying and trying to get it in working order I don't see any other solution then cutting the lips, but, since this is the only reed I have to this chanter I don't want to do this before I've got a new working reed as backup.
Has anyone tried B. Howards reeds in a Gallagher chanter and if so how did it work?
The dollar is expensive so I was figuring getting a cheaper alternative than a Gallagher reed.
Does anyone have any other suggestion regarding chanter reed maker? I don't want to part with the chanter though.

The Sterling/Euro exchange rate is good at the moment. Why not get in touch with an English reedmaker?
