Warm mellow centred tone with good response. Colour; yellow.
Viscount Oboe Reed

The Viscount (colour yellow) is a medium-weight reed suitable for many players from the early stages up to highly accomplished musicians. The medium gouge and a standard U-scrape produces an oboe reed with a good balanced scrape combining warmth and responsiveness. The shape is narrow creating a good balance of pitch stability with slightly enhanced upper register and projection.

Overall these features combine to offer a medium-weight oboe reed with a warm and slightly centred or focused tone.
