midnightkat August 18, 2010: Lisa Hudson Oboe Reeds I had ordered Lisa’s “The Doubler” Package (Professional), 2 oboe and 2 EH reeds with med strength and dark tone. I needed the reeds quick due to a tour date and got them in time, I did pay extra for the expedited order,...
Paul Hartl August 14, 2010: Stuart Dunkel Some good ones, but I have not seen much consistency from those that I have received from Dunkel in the last year – too many, more than half – have been junk. Paul Hartl August 14, 2010: ReedMonster I ordered 3 sets of 3 over a year’s time. 2 were great performance reeds with nice dark tone, excellent pitch stability, and ease of playing. 3 were practically unplayable (very, very light) garbage, and the other 4 were pretty good... Paul Hartl August 14, 2010: Jeanne Oboe Reeds Jeanne is not making finished reeds anymore, as of 2009 Paul Hartl August 14, 2010: American Oboe Reed Company I ordered 3 professional reeds and got 4! All are easy to play with excellent response, particularly in the low register. Very consistent from reed to reed with a very finished look and feel. One major complaint – they all play... midnightkat August 10, 2010: Reed Daddy My thoughts on these reeds. I ordered 3 “Principal Oboe Reeds” and did not care for any of them. I’ve been playing for about 16 years and found that they were too resistant and did not have the dynamic range I am used to with my reeds....

These got me out of a few jams! One was amazing. The flutist next to me bent it after about two days.
When i’m a beginner for oboe, i used Jones reeds. And it’s really hard to blow.
After quite a while, my instructor bought me Grahams reeds to try on. At first, I was not adjusted to the reed. But after blowing for several times, i found that it was easier to blow!
Now that my only Grahams reed was spoilt, i tried using back Jones reed, and it really was so hard to blow that i couldn’t even pitch the high notes. Sometimes i also could feel that my lips were very pain.
So now, i told my instructor to get Grahams reed instead of Jones reed. (:
if so many of u like these…y does the poll say that most of u don’t? :{
I purchased nearly 10 of these reeds when I was in high school. They gave me a pretty good sound. I would recommend these reeds to ANYONE who doesn’t have time to make their own, or if they are a young student.
I love these reeds! They produce a nice even tone and I’ve never bought a flawed one.
I ordered 3 reeds from them and 1 out of the 3 played well. The other 2 reeds openings were to closed and sounded really flat and didn’t sound out any low notes.
I play principal chair oboe in the South Dakota Symphony, and these reeds make a beautiful sound. Tone quality is smooth and even. Out of the 4 reeds that I myself have ordered, they were all very consistant.
Thanks much for commenting, and please rate the reedmaker in the poll.
The best commercially avaliable oboe reeds! A warm sound, good response, and excellent stability.
