3.0 out of 5 stars Reed takes a while to get a good sound, February 25, 2005

This review is from: Gower Oboe Premium Reed (Medium)

I've played oboe for about 4 and a half years. And reeds are always a problem! I tried looking for a good, but not too expensive reed. I thought Gower seemed good, but the sound of this reed was hornlike and abrupt and hard to tune at FIRST.

It took me about a little more than a month for the sound to finally come out smoothly and better in tone. Buy this reed in advance before any serious playing.

5.0 out of 5 stars this reed, April 9, 2011

I've been playing my oboe for about a year now, and I've tried maybe 5 different reeds along the way and this is the best reed I've ever used.

The sound and quality of this reed is outstanding. This reed is better, I think, than the Jones reed. Like I said, best reed I've ever used
