LaVoz is known for its quality reeds, and this oboe reed is no exception. Available in Medium, Medium Soft, and Medium Hard, you'll get a consistent reed with a good tone.

General information on oboe reeds: Oboe reeds are constructed of either wood or plastic. The wood reeds are made of 'cane', a natural material similar in structure to bamboo. We almost always recommend cane reeds over plastic reeds, since they sound a lot better, and are usually a lot more manageable. Plastic reeds cost more, but will last a lot longer (months instead of weeks). We find it difficult to get a good sound on an oboe using a plastic reed.

Cane reeds are available in different 'strengths'. The most popular strength is medium, followed by medium soft and by medium hard. Some manufacturers only make 1 or 2 strengths of oboe reed, but we stock all available varieties from each of the manufacturers we represent.

If your oboe teacher or band director recommends a specific reed, try to stick to the recommendation. There is a lot of variation between brands, and trusting the teacher's expertise is a good idea when it comes to reed selection. If you don't have a specific recommendation to work with, we suggest you try 1 each of several different brands, and choose the one that has the best sound for you and your oboe. We usually recommend the 'medium' strength for customers that don't already have a preference, although 'medium soft' might be more appropriate for beginning oboe players.

Water Bottle For Reed Hydrating
Item number 2020013DK, $1.95

If you are a woodwind player, then you know how important it is to moisten your reed before using it. A dry reed doesn't sound at all pleasant, and trying to make a dry bassoon or oboe reed play can totally ruin the reed.

Our water bottle is just the right size for oboe, bassoon, clarinet, and saxophone reeds. It holds 0.5 ounces of water, and has a leak-proof lid, so you can keep it with your instrument wherever you go. As an added bonus, our jar comes with a red velour carrying bag.
