Avignon Professional Oboe Reeds

Best Oboe Reeds For Advanced To Expert Players Seeking A Beautiful, More Focused Tone

Avignon Professional Oboe Reeds are handmade from scratch and 100% hand scraped. They are dark, expressive reeds and feature the most focused tone in my product line.  They have great projection and sound great in concert halls. I draw cane exclusively from my Avignon cane inventory and combine it with the right staple and signature scrape to achieve the results I seek. They benefit from an extra sort and drying cycle and quality sort vs. the intermediate model.

Experience Level:

• Best oboe reeds for professionals, adult amateurs and conservatory bound students .
• Enjoyed most by those with well developed embouchures and greater windspeed to fully take advantage of the reed's capability.

Finishing Touches:

• Each oboe reed is finished to concert standards.  Only reeds that meet or exceed these standards will be shipped.
• No two reeds are ever exactly the same, and in multiple reed orders one will always be best. 
• Tested in two rooms with and without carpet on a Loree 125 oboe.  When I test reeds, I try to replicate the embouchure of the player I expect to purchase it, not my own.  If it is not a fit, I start over.
• Reed prep instructions are included.
• Light application of Vaseline to moisturize cork.
• Covid sanitized.
• Reeds are guaranteed against cracks and leaks or other defects with a refund or replace remedy.  They are otherwise not returnable.
