Handmade Oboe Reeds To Sound Your Best
Magic Reed specializes in high quality handmade oboe reeds for aspiring to elite players. My signature reed making style evolved from training at The Juilliard School and Oberlin Conservatory, followed by extended study with Bert Lucarelli and others as an adult. I offer a full platform of differentiated brands with detailed descriptions to promote wise buying decisions. Customers find me accessible and eager to share additional information upon request. Curated collections of cane, supplies, tools, reed making equipment and accessories are also available.

I use weekends and other time as needed to keep blanks on hand for all brands. Precision draws from this inventory helps me achieve a compatible aperture and other attributes you seek by grade.
Let The Scraping Begin
With settled blanks on hand, I can start on your order shortly after arrival and spend the time needed to get optimum results. Your reeds will often arrive within a week depending on the speed of the post office service.

A Message From Kathy
I believe your oboe reeds should be a friend, not a foe. They should meet you where you are and help you get where you want to go. On balance, my customers learn faster, sound better and participate in more music making activities. Professionals appreciate a reliable source of concert worthy reeds capable of full musical expression. I work hard, and plan ahead, to provide a concierge level oboe reed service. It is my goal and privilege to use my skills and experience to promote more satisfying musical lives for my customers. Feel free to contact me if you need help with your order. Welcome to Magic Reed.
