Reed blanks are unfinished reeds. They will not play in the oboe until they are scraped thin enough to produce a finished playable reed. Unscraped blanks are cane that is wrapped onto the synthetic cork brass staple and closed at the tip. Scraped blanks have been scraped thin at the tip and clipped open. These blanks are designed for oboist who are learning how to make oboe reeds or for those who prefer to finish the reeds themselves.

Handmade Oboe Reeds
We offer two categories of oboe reeds:
Student-Pro Oboe Reeds and Pro-Line Oboe Reeds
Student-Pro Reeds:
Professional quality reeds, hand made by a professional oboist, prepared in strengths
for students to fit their individual needs for maturing embouchures.
Pro-Line Reeds:
Our performance reed, prepared by a professional oboist, for advanced players.
Slightly more refined in tone and balanced for performances, though they are an excellent choice for rehearsals and home practice.
Our cane is processed 'in house' and each reed is prepared by hand.
Since our reeds are made to order, please allow 7-10 days for delivery.
For rush deliveries, please inquire by email for availability by indicating the date you wish to receive your reed order. You will be notified by email if we can deliver by the date indicated or give you an approximate date of arrival. Please note most reed orders will arrive within 5-7 days. For the past few years we have shipped all orders in less than two weeks. We recommend placing orders at least 1-2 weeks in advance taking into consideration the 5-day reed-making process and shipping time.
We are currently using Rigotti cane for our handmade reeds with quality brass and silver staples (the same synthetic cork) for stable intonation. Our handmade, professional quality oboe reeds, made available to students, are a step up from manufactured reeds. Our Student-Pro reeds are hand scraped and comparable to reeds prepared and played by professional oboists (that retail between $25-$35) but offered here at an affordable price.
At Infiniti Reeds we strive to keep our reed prices on the low end of the average while staying competitive with current market prices.

Attention Oboists!
Infiniti Reeds does not allow refunds or exchanges on reeds.
Please note that double reeds are very fragile and affected by changes in temperature and humidity . They are especially susceptible to cracking when dry. We recommend soaking your reeds slightly longer than usual in very warm water for best results. Try to avoid soaking reeds in very cold water. Make sure your reeds are dry before storing them in reed cases. Be sure to handle them with care.
