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.
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.
Didn’t get a chance to use it as it split when soaking. The packaging was horrific and when I tried to reach out to return and have another sent, it kept me going in loops. I wanted to try this product and I’m really disappointed in the product and company. For the price, I was hoping it would be better. Will not order from here again.
The Alaw Reed played great straight out of the package. Good tone and the low notes popped out fantastically and easily. Upper register played well with good pitch.
Diamond stones work well to keep my reed knife sharp.
Very pleased with my new Alaw reed. Good tone and controllabillity.
Pitching accurately required a bit of getting used to at first but it now behaves very well excellent sound :and responsive .
This is a fabulous reed. After its initial soak, it has always played immediately from the case. It produces a mellow, rather than a bright, sound - and that is my preference. The low notes are as easy to play (even quietly) as I have ever experienced in a reed. I will definitely be buying this reed again.
C&S "professional" reeds are not usually available so I bought this Argento six months ago. I liked it better than Alaw and Urbach, in fact it was so good I just bought another. The new one is every bit as good. No adjustment was needed, it worked well immediately.
Very pleased with these, not too resistent or hard but also not too reedy/easy, just right for me with a good tone on a loree cor.
So relieved to find a reed that works for me. Fairly free blowing but with good depth of tone and stability. Good to go straight from the box. Perfect for me right now. Praying they remain consistent with their production. Very happy so far. Have bought several. Happy days.
