Utilizing traditional hand tools and custom-made equipment in tandem, Tiger Reeds professional and student reeds are entirely handmade and hand-assembled.
 
Available finishes:
Soft finished:
Most flexible, least resistant. Best for lower-octave playing (2nd bsn/2nd oboe).
Regular finished:
“The perfect one-size-fits-all reed”, most players; flexible, wide dynamic range, resonant. Most popular strength. Flexible and comfortably resistant.
Hard finished:
Most resistant. Best for exceptionally strong players, very flexible/bright instruments, or for a 'finished' reed with cane left to remove. (Don’t use this to fix a biting problem – this will make it worse! Seek expert guidance.)
Mostly-finished:
Blank with cut tip and first scrape, featuring Tiger Reeds long-lasting cane and fine blank assembly process. Finish to your specs.
Blank:
Tied/wired reed blank, no scraping. Economic and efficient.
