Kavinski Oboe Reed

Rich dark very broad tone, plenty of heart, good firm response
Kavinski Oboe Reed

The Kavinski oboe reed is heavy-weight in nature and recommended for experienced players. The medium gouge combines with a thick U-scrape to give an oboe reed with plenty or heart and substance for the accomplished embouchure to work with. The shape is wide with a large internal volume creating a broad tonal colour.

Some players find the wide shape can cause wallowing of 2nd octave F#, G or G#, or the pitch to be too low overall. If you need the pitch raised you can order these reeds to be made on shorter 46mm staples by writing this in the Special Instructions section during checkout.

Overall these features combine to offer a substantial oboe reed with a rich dark broad tone.
