Great reeds with good sound & balanced intonation. Minimal blowing in time.

The easiest 'new' reed I've ever played. Really nice rich sound throughout the range. Will be ordering again.

As a newbie bassoonist I'm gradually working my way up reeds in terms of price and, hopefully, performance. Having been through my six-student-reeds deal I thought I'd try a couple of these and I was not disappointed. Although they only arrived a few days before two gigs I was able to get them up to scratch in good time and they played reliably. I'm not yet in a position to compare them with even more prestigious (& expensive!) reeds but I'm glad I gave them a chance.

Really thrilled with the superb reeds. Have just used them for a week in the pit. Thankyou

There has been only one other bassoon reed that I ordered that played well and your 4 bassoon reeds that I ordered played wonderfully. There was no adjusting and all the notes popped out with ease. A clarinet player that sits next to me commented that the tone of the reed sounded really good (she also has played the bassoon). I have bought many reeds and have a draw full of reed that will hardly play or sound terrible! I am hoping to one day learn how to make my own bassoon reeds, but for now I will definitely be buying your reeds. Thank you so much for making the bassoon a little easier to master!

Great, play-out-of-the-box reeds. Minimal blowing-in. Good sound with good dynamic range and flexibility.

Very responsive reeds, minimal adjustment needed to play as preferred. Lovely even tone across the whole register. Would definitely recommend.
