Contrabassoon Finished Reeds 2 pcs Danzi

Thank you for viewing.
This is a listing for 2 finished contrabassoon reeds.

- Reed Dimensions:
Blade: Approx. 36mm
Tube: Approx. 33mm *
Total Length: Approx. 69mm *
*) Danzi materials are designed with shorter tube lengths, which, while maintaining playing balance, result in a pitch approximately 1.5-2 Hz higher than usual.
The shaper used is Reeds'n Stuff No. K1 (tip width 20.00mm).
* Reeds'n Stuff No. K1 is an orthodox type of shaper that combines a cohesive tone with a rich resonance.

- Material:
Danzi (Italy) (Material origin: Southern France)
This material has a vibrant quality, producing a bright and powerful tone.
The hardness selected and used ranges from 13 to 20 (slightly hard to slightly soft) as measured by the Reeds'n Stuff hardness gauge.

To minimize changes after finishing, these reeds are crafted over a period of approximately 2 months from assembly to completion.
During the finishing process, the reeds are shaped to ensure clear articulation at pianissimo (p) and a balanced range from low to high notes, capable of playing from pianissimo (p) to forte (f).
The reeds are finished to maintain a vibrant tone even when playing forte (f), making them suitable for:
- Players who prefer a slightly more resistant reed.
- Players with larger lung capacity.
- Players who enjoy reeds with a good amount of resistance.
These reeds are primarily recommended for intermediate to advanced players.

*The reeds are listed as Near Mint because they have been play-tested during the finishing process.
