Other Notes These reeds are made by the same oboe player who makes our student reeds. They have a very focused sound with a very warm tone and tend to be on the lighter side due to the narrower shape.

It is important to note that the points above are all relative. As with all of our reeds, we prioritize a good balance of intonation, tone quality, response, and articulation across all registers. Each professional oboe reed is handmade to order, and undergoes a multi-day finishing process. Additionally, all professional oboe reeds are thoroughly tested by me (Kevin) on a professional Loree Royal oboe set at A=440 and are sanitized before being shipped.

To estimate the waiting time for your handmade oboe reed, please refer to our waitlist, which can be accessed by clicking here.
