Jones 101MS Oboe Reed Medium Soft

The Jones Oboe Reed stands out as one of the rare commercial oboe reeds featuring the long scrape favored by almost all professionals. Only the top - grade French cane is hand - picked. To achieve the right tip opening without a wire, the cane is carefully sorted by diameter. Then, it's processed by skilled artisans using the world's most advanced reed - making machinery. Each reed is individually tested and adjusted by hand, and nearly every one gets some hand - scraping before final inspection and packaging. PLU: 101MS

Using your Jones oboe reed is easy. First, soak it in water for a few minutes until it's soft. Then, place it on your oboe carefully. When you play, make sure your lips are in the right position around the reed to get a good sound. For maintenance, after each use, dry the reed gently with a soft cloth. Store it in a proper reed case to protect it from damage. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or humidity as this can affect its performance. And if you notice any issues, you can do minor hand - scraping adjustments yourself or take it to a professional for help.
