Student / Professional Oboe Reeds

Student reeds - ideal for oboists with 2-4 years of playing experience.

Professional reeds - ideal for oboists with 4+ years of playing experience. 

Our oboe reeds use an American style scrape and are made with carefully selected cane to ensure the highest performance and quality. All of our reeds classify as "MEDIUM-SOFT," and strike the perfect balance between resistance and ease of use, allowing students to develop good embouchure habits and learn proper airflow techniques.

We prioritize good intonation, rich tone quality, easy response, and clean articulation, across all registers. Student / intermediate reeds slightly sacrifice tone quality to ensure an extra easy response while playing. Each reed is meticulously handcrafted, made-to-order, and undergoes a multi-day finishing process to ensure stability. Additionally, all reeds are thoroughly tested on a professional Loree Royal oboe set at A=440 and are sanitized before being shipped.

For an additional $1 per reed, you can select from the colors that we have listed.
