Adam English Horn Shaper Tips

We have just introduced some shaper tips that are produced using a less expensive method through complex hardening processes in a vacuum to avoid the shape changing during the process. It is still not to the highest accuracy and durability as the ones produced using a Wire EDM machine but is a good and less expensive alternative.

Falstaff

The curve was developed from the Ruth oboe shaper tip with wider options for a robust sound.

Mimi

A similar shape to the Caleb oboe shaper tip for a more focused sound with the upper register notes being "up" in place.

The numbers added to the shaper names indicate a .025mm difference for every 1 number added or subtracted. For instance, the Falstaff +2 is .05mm wider in all measurements than the Falstaff.

All shapers and shaper tips have a 30-day trial period. Compare several, choose one, and send back the rest for a full refund minus shipping. Returns after the 30-day trial period will be subject to a 10% restocking fee in addition to the cost of shipping, but must be returned in like new to new physical condition.
