Jeanne Standard Oboe Shaper Tip
Code: JT01
PRICE: $315.00
Product Description
•••••
The original Jeanne shaper tip, designed for oboe by
Valarie Anderson, is now being used by a great many of
the finest oboists in the world. This tip produces a
relatively narrow reed which seals tightly along its
sides. The reeds hold up to pitch and produce a sound of
beautiful coloration which doesn’t spread. This shape
requires a rather substantial cane gouge of .60-.48 or
heavier nearer the edge. We recommend wrapping between
70-71 mm to maintain pitch placement and depth.

We publish these samplings of Jeanne shaper tip dimensions in response to requests from some of our customers, but with the following caveat: Comparisons of the relative widths of shaper tips are not necessarily predictive of how reeds made from them will perform. The performance characteristics of a shaper tip result from complex interactions of the many dimensions, amd these interactions must be taken into account when designing the tip.
