Q: I began with Shawn Husk's Senior/Beginner reed and have moved to his Easy reed, but the lead time on getting reeds from Shawn has gotten long--a vision problem has slowed down his production, sorry to say. I'd like to try a couple other/different Very Easy to Easy reeds to see what other reed might work well for me. I have a McCallum chanter I only want ridge-cut reeds (I've tried the Shepherd molded Easy reed and was not pleased with it). If I order your Easy Bagpipe Chanter Reed Variety Pack, (1) can I request specific reeds to try, or (2) if not, can you tell me which three reeds you would send? Thanks, Mark Wilsdorf Madison, MO

Asked by: Mark Wilsdorf - 12/15/2019

A: Yes, you have the opportunity to select any reed that you like. There is a comments section on the Easy reed variety pack product page that will give you the opportunity to make this selection!

Asked by: Roger H Coletti - 2/18/2021

Q: Is the tonal quality of these reeds equal to the shephard's cut reeds or better? Are these reeds easier to sound than shephard's cut reeds and do they require a high pressure to be maintained to prevent them from shutting off? My shephard's cut keeps shutting off for me.

Asked by: Bill Shlepr - 3/16/2020

A: Reed strengths and tonal quality very from reed maker to reed maker and change from chanter make to chanter make. In general, I would say that they would be about the same strength as the Shepherd Ridge cut reed, perhaps the Abedour would be easier in strength.
