Reeds 'n Stuff Reed Guillotine for Oboe

Achieve flawless reed cuts with the precision of the guillotine mechanism, designed to guarantee perfect results every time. The integrated millimeter scale allows you to easily select the exact length of your reed, ranging from 10mm to 80mm, making it suitable for both scraped and unscraped reeds.

The adjustable length stop ensures consistent cuts, allowing you to preset your preferred lengths for repeated use.

FAQ:

My blade looks tarnished. What should I do?
You can easily remove tarnish with metal polish.

Why does the blade tarnish?
We use a high-performance steel that forms a natural patina over time, improving cutting ability compared to stainless steel.

How do I check the quality of my cut?
Test your blade by cutting a piece of cigarette paper. If the blade cuts cleanly, no need to replace it. If it doesn’t, the blade may be blunt, or the screws holding the front blade may be loose. Tighten them just enough for the blade to move smoothly up and down.
