Staples

You can choose to have your reeds wrapped & scraped on to various types of staples, they include cork staples and all brass staples. The detailed choices and prices maybe viewed on the order form and home page.

Cork staples

This type of staple is used by most oboists.

All metal staples

The all metal tubes are a new development bringing the modern oboe staple into the 21st century.
These staples have proven to increase resonance, extend the range of dynamics and tonal colourings.
The staples have two rubber rings attached around them which provides a good seal and are easy to insert and take out of the oboe's socket.

Cane ( Arundo Donax )

The cane is carefully selected and of a high quality. Chinese gouged & shaped cane is used for all complete new reeds and recanes.
