Works well for drying the bocal. Delivered quickly. Website easy to use. Thank you
I am a good level amateur (post grade 8) playing on a good Adler Sonora bassoon, but I find that many of the reeds offered by professional players who also sell reeds are too hard for me and my instrument, even ones sold as being of medium strength. Unfortunately I don't have the training to make adjustments to such reeds so that they are playable for me. I have shopped around over the years for a brand of reed that is consistently suitable for me and eventually hit upon these. They are not entirely consistent in quality I feel, but I have purchased about 9 or 12 in recent years and have found that nearly all have been useable after a few weeks of 'breaking in'. I would definitely recommend trying these if you're looking for a more medium style of reed.
Very pleased with the reed. Solidly finished and exactly as described
Ordered 1 student reed and 1 medium soft. Took a while to arrive, however both reeds were good quality. Especially good on low and middle ranges.
I've been using it for about a month now and I'm quite happy with it. My few criticisms are: It sometimes slips a little due to pressure (when assembling and disassembling the instrument), so it requires some attention. It would also have been nice to include a properly sized screwdriver for easy installation and adjustment.
Both swabs work much better than the (40 year old!) ones that came with my Puchner.
Good quality reeds, consistent medium hardness. They play in fairly quickly.
I ordered "Abracadabra Oboe" (instruction book), which was to have come with 2 CDs. However, I received the version without CDs with instructions for downloading the tracks. I emailed Crook and Stable about this discrepancy but received no reply. I'm quite disappointed in the lack of response.
