Thank you for looking. This is a finished oboe reed. You can listen to sound samples from my past listings. Total length: Approx. 71mm Scrape: Approx. 10mm Tube: Guerciotti d12, 46mm *This is a used tube, but I select ones in good condition with no chips on the cork. The thread color is differentiated by cane. The blowing resistance is light, but it produces a cohesive sound, is easy to articulate, and is adjusted for easy intonation in the upper register. Also, the reed is assembled so that the front and back are less likely to shift, making it easy for beginners to handle. I apologize for the delay in shipping, but I will begin the final finishing touches after your purchase, so shipping is set for 4-7 days. Thank you for your understanding. I have been providing reeds to music stores, students, and amateurs for nearly 20 years. Please take this opportunity to try one.
