the second to highest octave or thereabouts often came with a set of
plates installed between the reed and its screw. apparently this was
done to avoid reed breakage in a high-trafficked area of the keyboard.
if you have these plates installed try removing them as they might be
causing the reeds to vibrate less over the pickup rail.
