Top Quality Student Oboe Reeds With All Professional Materials. Handmade From Scratch. 

Reed Monkey Student Oboe Reeds are handmade from scratch and feature a hybrid scrape that is combined with a nuanced hand finish for a great playing experience.  They are drawn from all premium brands based on sorts based on response, aperture (reed opening) size and tone quality. They are the gold standard in the industry for student grade reeds and feature professional materials, including cane and a Chiarugi professional oboe staple.  Recommended for players with at least 6 months months experience who want to sound better while learning their ABC's of music.  Private study with a professional oboe teacher is recommended, but not essential for this model.

  • Cane: Premium cane from Magic Reed inventory.
  • Staple: Chiarugi Professional staple. Reed maker choice of length (46 or 47 mm).
  • Shape: Mack-Pfeiffer or similar.
  • Blank Length: 72.5-73 mm. 
  • Finished Reed Length: 69-70 mm.

Finishing Touches:

  • Every reed receives dozens of micro adjustments prior to shipment based on testing with an embouchure close to what is expected for players at this grade level. 
  • Tested on a Howarth XL or Marigaux 901 Oboe.
  • Reed prep instructions are included.
  • Light application of Vaseline to moisturize cork. 
  • Players encouraged to sanitize reeds upon arrival.
  • Guaranteed against cracks and leaks or other defects that cause reed to play under grade.
