New end shapes for the oboe profiler
Extra high U - W and low U - straight

Based on input from customers and reeds of which we made customer specific templates, we developed 2 new end shape parts

 

Extra high U - extra high W

Multiple customers asked for an end shape which leaves more bark at the sides. The extra high U - extra high W end shape result in a smaller scrape at the back and a shorter scrape at the sides. This means there will stay more bark at the sides of the scraped reed.

 

You can find the extra high U - extra high W end shape here.

 

Low U - straight

We see more and more reeds with a straight end shape of the scrape. The low U - straight end shape gives you the option to choose the shape that suites you best.
