First Chair Professional Oboe Reeds- Free Blowing Model
Summary:
- First Chair Professional Oboe Reeds are handmade from scratch. They feature a slimline construction designed to help players sound their best with somewhat less effort. The have a beautiful tone, a supple response and are well balanced for pitch and stability.
- I draw from my Frejus Oboe Cane inventory with distinctive tonal attributes and an exceptional capacity for the specific results I seek for this brand.
-
Reeds are made with an American long scrape.
- Every reed receives dozens of micro adjustments and quality tests prior to shipment. My goal is always to meet/exceed my strict quality standards for every reed I make- without compromise.
- Consult the Collections Page for construction details.
Experience Level:
- Designed for high school, college and adult amateurs with 4+ years experience seeking a great reed that features a smaller aperture and lighter scrape to achieve a less strenuous playing experience.
Finishing Touches:
- 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.
