The Paris (colour light green) is a lighter-weight responsive oboe reed suitable for many players from the early stages up to accomplished musicians who like free-blowing oboe reeds. The thin gouge and a standard U-scrape combine to produce an oboe reed with a well balanced scrape providing tonal clarity and increased resonance. The shape is medium width with a medium-large internal volume creating resonance and sonority.
Overall these features combine to offer a popular lighter-weight oboe reed with a clear medium-to-broad tone.
Test-and-Return Guarantee
Reeds can be returned, after testing, within 7 days of receipt - see our Returns Page for more information. Please note we cannot accept reeds which have been played on for a long time, or altered or marked in any way. Specially made non-standard reeds are non-returnable.
Delivery
We use Royal Mail First Class post. Combining our order processing time with time in the post it is normal to expect the reeds within roughly a week from ordering. It is best to plan ahead and order well before you have completely run out of reeds!
