Bassoon Reed Ordering & Care
One of the biggest problems that students encounter playing bassoon is not having quality reeds. I am pleased to offer my hand made bassoon reeds at a reasonable cost with a short delivery time. My reeds are made with quality GSP Donati cane and are available in a variety of shapes to fit varying playing styles and preferences.
Bassoon reeds have a limited playing life. After that the pitch may start to sag, and the sound quality also deteriorates. It is recommended to rotate at least 3 reeds at a time. Bassoons are beautiful sounding instruments, but cannot perform properly without good reeds.
You may now order bassoon reeds directly through my online store. This gives you selections for shape. Your reeds are usually available for delivery at your students lesson the following week, or mail within 3-7 days. The store is now merged directly into my website for student orders. During COVID reeds are being mailed for no additional cost, or you may pick them up from me.
COVID-19 - My reeds have always been sterilized in 70% alcohol before packaging, which is within current CDC guidelines. I am currently doing a 2 step sterilization and have increased the alcohol percentage to 75% and they are also run through UV and sit in open air for a minimum of 4 days before packaging.
