Best reeds I've used

I love these reeds. My tutor got me playing these again after I had tried G1 Platinum Chesney reeds. I prefer the moulded to the ridge-cut. My tutor will manipulate a medium reed after 6-8 weeks of "seasoning" it by breaking it in before making any significant modifications. My 2 solo reeds have lasted me a year and taken me from Grade V/IV to Grade III. I find the easy reeds are great to play but just might not last quite as long as a harder one "seasoned" by blowing it in and then having an expert shave or sand it a wee bit strategically. There are a LOT of great Pipe Chanter reeds out there, but so far these Shepherd moulded reeds have served me best in the solo and band environments. Bright, durable, dependable.

Doodee Pipes

This actually has become my favorite reed for the medieval bagpipes over the g1 reed. It played all day perfect in cold wet weather...It is easily manipulated to strength you need with out effecting the tone or pitch...and responded much nicer in my chanter...I have to shave the easy probably to a little under half its normal thickness...but I was impressed by this reed.
