17 Shaped pieces of oboe reed cane.extra narrow -N1

Description: Oboe shaped cane 17 Shaped extra narrow -N1 10.5 diameter Cain and center scored pieces of oboe reed cane.5 Shapes and 4 diameters to choose from Hand picked by me from most of the cane growers each year I buy cane from all available growers and hand pick the best cane for my reeds this is the same cane I use to make my own reeds. and is ready for you too make your own reeds with out the time and expensive reed making equipment. For your Reference. Shape -- I use shaper tip’s buy RDG available -N1 = extra narrow -1 = narrow 1 standard -2 = wide 2 = extra wide (the lower the number the narrower the shape) the narrower shape will help with high notes. The wider will help lower notes. Diameter --- Will define the opening. ( this is the circumference of the cane ) The most common used is 10.50 . The choices start from 10.25 the smallest circumference and it will give you the biggest opening. Too 11.00 the largest this will give you a smaller opening. the lower number = bigger opening The bigger opening you start with the (softer = thinner) you will need to make the reed. The (harder = thicker ) the reed is the more stable it will be. You will want to work your way to a harder reed they will be more stable and last longer. Keep in mind the tip of the reed should remain the same no matter the thickness adjustment is made from the heart to the tip and in the windows. Try to keep the heart as thick as you can and the tip as thin as the cane will allow. So for most players shaper size #1 and Diameter 10.50 will be the best choice. From there you can customize reeds to your liking. So if you think you would like a reed that supports high notes better then you may choice a narrow shaper size. Or if you want a bigger opening you may want to go with a smaller diameter cane.
