Description

Ross Chanter Reeds

 

Ross reeds are a favorite of pipe bands at all levels. This ridge cut reed has a big sound and works well in a wide range of chanters. Available in medium and easy strengths. Shipped humidified and ready to play.



Helpful Tips:
-when you receive your reeds, slightly dampen them &, if necessary, pinch the sound box.  Pinching will ease it & allow easier blowing-in experience.  You may pinch the reed ocasionally to maintain the ease of blowing.
-if, after pinching, the reed is still too strong, you may need to slightly scrape the blades of the lay (the top half of the reed).  Do only a little at a timeand evenly on each side.  Use a very sharp utility knife and scrape lightly.  A rubber band (3/16" diameter & force 4 oz) placed just above the black hemp wil ease the reed too.
-if you find the reed is flat on the 'F', pinch the reed; applying rubberbands may help too.  If you have this problem with an easier reed, you can trim the tips of the blades with a very sharp knife.

Great reed for almost any chanter. Nice crisp and bright sound. Good for solo or band.

My band plays Ross reeds and they have served us well! They go great with our ABW McCallum chanters.

This reed will make any chanter sound like a champion. This reed is especially good in McCallum chanters. The only thing that isn't amazing as far as these reeds go, is they need a little tweaking before they give you the best sound

This reed used to be the best in the market, but the quality and consistency has not been the same over the 2009 season. "Classic" Ross reeds produce a great volume and quality of sound perfect for either band or solo performances.
