Superb Contra Cane

This is an excellent cane which forms well without cracking to the collar. It has been profiled with the ideal tube length for my style of reed. The hardness of the cane seems good for chamber and orchestral playing, though I might choose harder cane for exposed orchestral work.

Good after scraping

A bit stuffy as delivered, but good after a little scraping

Poor Quality

Sadly I bought two of these reeds and both are not performing as I wished. One reed is already out of alignment and is splitting, although I have only used it three or four times. I have had problems with response despite soaking the reeds thoroughly before use. I completed the questionnaire in order to select a reed but on this occasion it has not worked for me. I am not a professional player but do play regularly with an amateur Orchestra. This is a lot of money to have spent to end up with two reeds which are not working as they should.

Fantastic reeds

Really pleased with the reeds and service - would highly recommend

A beautiful reed

This reed gave a really warm, clear tone and felt responsive to play.

Both reeds great

Student reeds

So far I am finding the reeds good. I am elderly so cannot manage a hard reed so it is useful to be able to get a softer one. I'll see how they last.

Not the one for me

This reed is very responsive and easy to play, definitely on the soft side of medium. For me though, I find the tone a bit on the thin side. A friend has tried the reed with the same result..

Quality product

This is my go-to choice of wire. A good balance of flexibility/strength.

Beautiful reeds

I have used Urbach reeds for 50 years and I love them . The cane is far superior to other makes . Usually come ready to blow , just slight wire adjustment.

Excellent, stable reeds

These reeds are well made and playable straight out of the box. Good attack at the bottom but also maintaining a good tone in the tenor register.
