Nice Reed

This. Cor Anglais Reed played with a good tone and intonation across the range .
It just needed a light overall scrape .

I would recommend it .

Modern Staple Inappropriate

The classical oboe reeds were made with modern brass staples fitted with O-rings rather than the traditional thread wrapping. Consequently the staples did not fit the instrument and there was no way to adjust the width. I must confess I should have done more research before purchasing.

Cor Anglais Reed

Excellent free-blowing reeds with a lovely tone.

Reeds order

Great service. Good choice of reeds. All came as described and fast easy delivery. Would definitely recommend!

I found them difficult to

I found them difficult to get low notes with without lengthening the scrape about 1-2 mm and taking more wood off the back area right up to but not including the tip. This did not collapse the reed and it remained stable perhaps because of the smaller arc and tough bark.

Reed

Good. Virtually ready to play :+1::smile:

Perfect quality

This reed sounded warm with little knife adjustment. It was in tune straight away I was very impressed as I am with all your reeds. Problem is I broke it at my first rehearsal lol so I will reorder from you again.

First order of Professional Cor

First order of Professional Cor Anglais reeds from Crook and Staple. Very pleased with the tone it gives across the full range. Good quality cane.
I am now going to order some oboe reeds from them.

Gorgeous sound

Sounded lovely, just a bit hard and so needed to be adjusted a fair bit. Sounds beautiful on my Lorée Cor!

Great!

Was playing in a pit for a youth production and this reed got me through Sweeney Todd. Sounded better & better as it got played in

Good but

Although the reed is just perfect, I would have thought the shipping would have been with a sort of holder to protect it, like for clarinet for exemple. But I am new to oboe, so I wont complain any further.

3-stars…it ain’t bad! (but it is big…)

I recently purchased the 6-bassoon/3-contrabassoon wooden reed case from Crook and Staple, and I have mixed feelings about it. First off, the case is a bit larger than I expected, but fortunately, it fits into my Pro-Tec Bassoon Case "ok" above the boot joint on the inner lid-protected storage.

One of the things I really love about this case is the ample room it provides for each reed. It’s great to have dedicated space for my reeds, ensuring they stay secure and protected. However, I did have to re-glue two of the bracing ends that hold down the contrabassoon and bassoon reed holder rods, which was a bit disappointing.

Overall, I’m happy with my purchase and would suggest it to other bassoonists. Just keep in mind that this reed case is larger than expected, so plan accordingly. Also, be aware that it doesn't have a latch; it closes with magnets, which means it could fall open if left loose in a bag.

In summary, I’m giving it 3 out of 5 stars, but I would still recommend it to fellow bassoonists!

Brass staple

I will get back to you after our rehearsal....should be interesting... hopefully with this reed i will be heard over the bagpiper whos playing ....beautifully made reed...

Adjustable oboe staples

The corkless staples are helping my sound to project.

Postage which was relatively expensive was due to arrive in 2-3 working days. It only arrived ye...

A little disappointed with music bag which was quite flimsy.

Favourite to date

I've been working my way round different reeds, having decided that you probably get what you pay for with oboe reeds. To date, this is the only one that I have repeatedly come back to as they seem to settle quickly and are good across the range. As always, some are better than others but still, I have found them more consistent than other brands. To put this in context, I am
nowhere near professional level, more Grade 8 level.

Bassoon cane order

Arrived as promised carefully and safely packed! Great service!

Medir cane

Always consistent shape and curvature, with a central line for folding accurately. The hardness does vary of course - this time one out of the five pieces was almost too hard to be useable - but the rest make good reeds with very little extra scraping. Package arrived promptly from Crook and Staple.

Not the one for me

I have had 2 of these reeds. They are both easy blowers for the low notes but not as good for the high (third octave F). Having said this, I don't have a third octave key on my oboe - maybe this particular reed needs that?
