These mandrel pins have been carefully developed to produce the ultimate bassoon reed tube shape. They are more expensive than the more generic pins we sell (mandrel tips), however, due to these being custom made and with the added benefits that they afford, they are we'll worth the extra cost! read more...

Effective (but not cheap)

Read about these on Barrick Stees site, and the principle of a long forming taper makes good sense to me. (The taper section is about 42mm in total.) So far seem effective. Worth noting that the associated Pin Mandrel Vice is quite 'chunky', coming in at around 225g.

Thanks for the review Adrian. Sadly, UK customs and VAT makes the price for these mandrel tips more expensive than most but, as you say the principal is very good and I know several people who swear by them! We are currently looking at a lighter (and potentially cheaper) alternative for the pin vice mandrel holder - will keep you posted! All the best, Matthew

My daughter's favourite reeds

The Academy Oboe Reeds by Crook & Staple have been my daughter's favourite reeds since her 4th year learning oboe. She is now at her 9th year.

Reed Water Pot & Holder (Magnetic!) - Water Pot

This reed water cup is awesome and is extremely convenient. I use it for clarinet and bass clarinet reeds, and, despite the reed cups' small size, it can fit both soprano and bass clarinet reeds.

Rigotti Oboe / Bassoon Reed Guillotine

Kge US reeds

Arrived promptly and all playable... and there are v few UK sources of the US style reeds that I prefer.

Fantastic mandrel

Easy to hold which is important for a contrabassoon mandrel.

Medium Reed

Fabulous Reed really pleased with it, will definitely order again.

Marsden Bassoon Reed

I used to use Britannia reeds as they were consistently reliable. Then I found out they are discontinued. In looking for an alternative I decided to try out Marsden bassoon reeds and although it did need breaking in, after a few weeks I am happy with my purchase.

Good reed

Reeds arrived promptly, and played reasonably well. Needs a bit of work to get the sound and response I really want.

Nice-looking case

Nice-looking case. Would be helpful to have dimensions and a photo on the website listing. Tall enough to fit my baroque oboe reeds with the bottom staple attached, although I think it is designed just to hold the reeds on their own, as the spring mechanism doesn’t work so well if the reed is stored with the bottom staple on.

Great!

Perfect present for my daughter’s birthday. Arrived very promptly which doesn’t often happen near to Christmas!
