3Pcs Oboe Reed Medium Soft Oboe Reeds Handmade Oboe Reed for Beginners Wind Instrument Parts with Transparent Plastic Storage Box (Black)

These reeds are definitely not for beginners. They are extremely short and hard. We’ve tried soaking them for extra amounts of time and nothing seems to work. The oboe is obviously a hard instrument to begin with, but a reed should not be this hard to get to vibrate. I nearly had to bite it to make one squeak. That’s what I get for trying reeds from Amazon. I should have known better.

I don't play the oboe so these are just based on what my daughter has told me. She said these reeds seem to work and sound better than the ones she has used in the past that we've ordered from Amazon. And they seem to last longer, will be reordering these.

Not great, I had to replace these within a week of purchasing. Splintered and broke, sounded horrible

It was just what my daughter needed works very well. And shipped very fast

2 broke the second we tried to use them, the third hardly made a sound

My daughter just texted me from band class and said that all these reeds broke immediately upon first use. No sound was coming out and she noticed the reed was split down the sides. They are junk.

Soaked 2 of the 3 reeds and couldn't get a sound out of them. Will be returning.

My daughter just started playing the oboe and of course needed reeds. I will admit I’m new to this but the same brand and type had received decent ratings and only sold one reed.Anyways, my daughters typically quiet and reserved band director actually swore when telling my daughter how horrible these reeds are. I will be returning them, but wanted to warn others
