FAQs

What should I use to wet my reed?
It is best to use water. Do not submerge for more than two minutes.

Can I store my reeds in the plastic holders they came in?
These holders are for initial transport only. Use an airtight reed storage system for longevity.

How should I break in my reeds?
Reeds need 3–5 days to adjust. Use a humidity case, soak briefly, play for short periods, and store with a Reed Vitalizer. Gradually increase playing time.

What is the difference between traditional and thick reed blanks?
Blank thickness refers to the cane wall. Thicker blanks have more material, affecting tone and feel.
