Deliberately unfinished bassoon reed

This is a handmade reed.
It will be delivered in an unfinished state. Please shape and adjust it to fit your instrument. It can be used for practicing reed scraping, testing the sharpness of your knife, or checking the blowing resistance.

Regarding the manufacturing process:
The finishing with a making machine or reamer has been intentionally omitted, so please adjust it to fit your bocal size.

There are numbers written in pencil. They have no particular meaning.

Are you sacrificing your precious, hard-to-get, finished reeds?
We hope you will try this intentionally unfinished bassoon reed for your experiments.
