All reeds are meticulously finished to be the best possible asset to the beginning, intermediate, or even professional bassoonist. Allowing for the highest level of musicality and versatility, these reeds are crafted to have a free blowing, consistent feel, a rich, round tone, and solid intonation.
The photos are provided to give examples of the variations.
All reeds are shipped in durable plastic tubes that can be used for soaking. These tubes should not be used for storage of wet or moist reeds, as this will cause mold.

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
All reeds and blanks are shipped in durable plastic tubes that can be used for soaking or storage. These tubes should NOT be used for storage of wet or moist reeds, as this will cause mold. With proper storage, your reeds should be playable and reliable for a long time but be careful of how you store them. Be sure they are dry!
No reed or blank should be stored in a closed container while wet or moist as this could cause mold or mildew.
All bassoon and contrabassoon reeds and blanks are hand crafted from start to finish with ease of playing, rich tone, and intonation in mind. All blanks can have the collar cut in and/or the tip clipped but will not be tested before shipment, while reeds are play-tested and finished to your exact specifications. Please reach out for information about orders and if you have any questions!
