Custom Clarinet Reed Blanks

About my reed blanks:
I make my reed blanks with a Greg James planer and shapers. The shapers I have are modified Morré and Vandoren styles. The blanks will be 70 mm long, have a minimum thickness of 3.3 mm, and will be uncut. You can choose to have another thickness or have the vamps cut when you order. I am now also able to make blanks of any shape with my Reeds n' Stuff shaping machine. Please contact me for specific sizing.
I currently offer 3 types of cane: Danzi, Marion, Rigotti. I plan on adding a few more varieties very soon. All of my cane is sourced and shipped directly from France and is grown in the Var region.
Why buy reed blanks?
- If you’re someone who is just starting and you need to buy all reed-making equipment, you can focus first on buying a profiler and save money.
- The choices for commercially available reed blanks are limited and vary in quality. They are in many cases too thin and not long enough, and not always as even or as flat as they could be.
- I focus on making my reed blanks as flat and even as possible. I’m pickier with what I sell than what I use for myself!
- If you already make your own reeds, you can save time by having someone do much of your work for you.
