My wish is that you feel uplifted by playing the oboe, and that you elevate the resolution of your "sound quality" even further than before. I hope that the enhanced quality of your oboe playing brings a smile to someone's face. I want to provide you with the "music experience itself" through the reed. I made this with great care, thinking of that. If you would like to purchase multiple reeds, please let me know via message. You can save some money with combined shipping. Shaping: Primarily using a Vetschstein making machine, with some hand finishing by knife.
