Reeds

After nearly a year of work and experimentation I am very proud to introduce my new custom clarinet reeds. I will be offering two slightly different versions “Thick” and “Standard”.

These reeds are of the highest quality of cane I have seen in years. This well aged “golden” cane from the Var region of France produces reeds that are extremely stable and flexible. Clarinet reeds are available in strengths 2.5 – 5.0 in half strength increments.

I believe that the THICK cut blanks are ideally suited to Fobes mouthpieces.

I am closing out the Standard reeds. They are $20/box and will be discontinued. I only have #4, 4.5 and 5 left.

Thick

A traditional French-cut vamp with a thick (3.4mm) Viennese style blank. The result is a very vibrant and robust sound. Reed strength is similar to V-12

Standard

Same cut on a 3.00 mm blank.

A very traditional cut, this cut runs a bit firmer than Van Doren reeds. Excellent for closer faced mouthpieces.
