Great cane for the right purpose

This is quite heavily profiled cane and really only wants the tip finishing, which results in quite a soft and bright reed, though it can be darkened with wire placement/shape. I really like this cane and use it for 2nd bassoon playing as its best for quiet and/or mid to low range playing. Excellent service.

Great sounding reeds from the get-go!

The reeds I made using this cane sounded almost perfect from the get-go with minimal scraping. Will definitely buy this cane again.

Great product. Fast delivery

Always good service with quality products. Thd best cane ive used so far.

Dear Andrew,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, it is always lovely to hear from our satisfied customers. Happy reed making!

Prestige Bassoon Cane (Gouged, Profiled and Shaped)

Good, basic cane for bassoon reed making. Affordable price, which is a plus when you are still figuring out your way to do reeds and may have to sacrifice some canes for experimenting. These are neatly made and easy to work with.

Good after scraping

A bit stuffy as delivered, but good after a little scraping

Poor Quality

Sadly I bought two of these reeds and both are not performing as I wished. One reed is already out of alignment and is splitting, although I have only used it three or four times. I have had problems with response despite soaking the reeds thoroughly before use. I completed the questionnaire in order to select a reed but on this occasion it has not worked for me. I am not a professional player but do play regularly with an amateur Orchestra. This is a lot of money to have spent to end up with two reeds which are not working as they should.

Fantastic reeds

Really pleased with the reeds and service - would highly recommend

A beautiful reed

This reed gave a really warm, clear tone and felt responsive to play.

Both reeds great

Student reeds

So far I am finding the reeds good. I am elderly so cannot manage a hard reed so it is useful to be able to get a softer one. I'll see how they last.

Not the one for me

This reed is very responsive and easy to play, definitely on the soft side of medium. For me though, I find the tone a bit on the thin side. A friend has tried the reed with the same result..

Quality product

This is my go-to choice of wire. A good balance of flexibility/strength.

Beautiful reeds

I have used Urbach reeds for 50 years and I love them . The cane is far superior to other makes . Usually come ready to blow , just slight wire adjustment.

Excellent, stable reeds

These reeds are well made and playable straight out of the box. Good attack at the bottom but also maintaining a good tone in the tenor register.
