Bought these instead of the C&S Pro which are out of stock. Was recommended them as a good substitute. They certainly are. Thanks very much. Looking forward to playing the finale of Tchaik Pathetique on it (2nd bassoon).
I compared this with several reeds of a comparable price: it plays straight from unpacking with a clear tone. I'll be ordering more!
Very pleased with the service and the slight resistance of the reed. Chose this reed because as a beginner returning after many years away a previous review noted satisfaction as a beginner with a Fox Reynard and that’s my bassoon.
I ordered over the Easter holidays and expected a delay but it arrived quickly and is perfect for the job. Thankyou.
Hardly had much chance to use this but so far it has cut smoothly, cleanly without any cracking or splits and squarely across the axis. Can’t ask for anything more. Reasonable price as well. Feels solid and robust.
Nicest reed so far. I really enjoy playing with it.
This is quite heavily profiled cane and really only wants the tip finishing, which results in quite a soft and bright reed, though it can be darkened with wire placement/shape. I really like this cane and use it for 2nd bassoon playing as its best for quiet and/or mid to low range playing. Excellent service.
