Student Shaped Oboe Cane
For a person just learning to make reeds, the number of variations in available cane is bewildering and intimidating. Having one clearly marked by its label as a place to begin is extremely helpful, and leads one to actually get started instead of putting off this project for lack of a clue as to where to start. (As to the quality of the cane itself, I cannot say. In this field I am, after all, a beginner.)

Great quality for the price!
They have made very consistent reeds for me so far. My students have liked every reed I have made for them, and they play very well. I have even made a few for myself, and have been satisfied with the results. The thinner gouge makes it easier to turn out more reeds in a faster amount of time.

The best price for beginning reed makers
I can’t totally rate this item yet because I haven’t started making reeds quite yet. However, my teacher gave me a list of supplies I will need and she told me I will need lots and lots of cane. A couple hundred pieces to practice reed making to start with. Gouged and shaped cane is very expensive and beginners make lots of mistakes. Hodge Products is the best place to buy student shaped oboe cane. It is of good quality and a nice shape and, trust me, you will not find it cheaper - by a long shot - anywhere else. I would say give this cane a try, for sure.

Overall good cane
I ordered 12 pieces of the student shaped cane, as I am on a tight budget right now and need the cheapest I can get. The cane is very good, the only problem was that I received about 4 pieces that were not useable. This was quickly corrected by Hodge Products, and they are sending me 4 more pieces. Excellent cane and even better customer service.
