  • Adjustable to suit everybody
  • Great value!

Ideal for students - grade 0 - 2

If you are a beginner to grade 2 oboist, the Crook and Stable Student Oboe Reed is ideal for you. It has many features which allow you to progress your technique and musicality without being held back by problems that can be caused by using heavier reeds in the early stages of learning the oboe. The reeds are hand-made in the UK by a leading professional oboe reed maker.

Warm tone & easy to play

The medium-soft strength of our student oboe reed helps you to develop a free and open embouchure which, later in your development, will make creating a warm singing tone on the oboe much simpler. It will also allow you to play for longer sessions, as it does not wear out your embouchure as quickly as other reeds.

Durable, adjustable & good value

Students often don't realize how fragile oboe reeds are and break them frequently; our great value student oboe reeds have been designed with a thicker tip in order help prevent accidental damage! Our student oboe reed also features a wired (has a wire attached part way down the reed) which makes it easy for your or your teacher to adjust the reed, for example, to open up the tip of the reed more, etc. The reed cane is attached to a quality cork oboe staple by attractive thread (the staple is the metal tube at the bottom of the reed).

The reeds came on time and were packaged appropriately. They sound out well and I shall use this company again.

Nicely made reeds but needed scraping before being playable.
I ordered medium soft which I expected just needed blowing in.

Both that I ordered …. Easy to play

I could imagine this as the ideal reed for a beginning student …. Believe me … it is one of the very few ( if any ) that I’ve tried since COVID that is appropriate for a student …. Kudos C&S !!

Good reeds and prompt delivery

This is the first time we ordered from Crook and Staple. We received the reeds in 3-4 days, reeds in good condition and are easy to use. Very happy about the reeds and the delivery service.

These play better than any other reeds I've tried, but extracting them from the oboe's socket is devilishly hard, even after filing down the cork a little and greasing it.

Reed did not play well and construction below par.
