Gouged oboe cane processed from tubes entirely by hand, meticulously sorted by diameter and measured multiple times for proper thickness. Ready for cutting into the shape of your choice and making into awesome reeds! The selections here are the same varieties of cane used in NC Double Reed Company reeds.
New to reedmaking and not sure what to buy? Choosing a brand and diameter got you confused? Ask your oboe teacher, or reach out to us and we will be more than happy to advise!
Making a lot of reeds? Most of these same cane selections are also available at a discount when you purchase a bundle of 10 pieces!
Gouged Oboe Cane- Single Piece
- Center: 0.58-0.60mm thickness
- Sides: 0.48-0.52mm thickness
- Gouger: Driscoll Opus 1
You may notice that the ends of each piece are slightly narrowed; I do this intentionally because it helps the gouging machine blade feed more smoothly onto the cane on the gouger bed. This does not affect the shaping process.
