I’m an amateur player and usually a very average reed maker but this has really helped me to make reeds that are more consistent. It’s a good design which fits into a neat box that turns into a nifty stand. A good investment and v good service from C&S

Easy to use for us
Easy to use for us with oh so clumsy fingers.
Hello Mark,
These micrometers are super easy to use, we particularly like the wooden box it folds into too! Thank you for taking the time to leave us a lovely review. We hope to have you shop with us again in the future.
Best Wishes,
Eliza @ Crook & Staple

Redesign & Rebuild required.
I had to redesign it slightly and rebuild it to get less flex in the tongue which was caused by the force of the micrometer plunger.

Great micrometer, fast delivery
Easy to use and accurate. Has a nifty and well-made storage box, that doubles as a stand.
In a shipment of two reeds, one plays great (ergo the high rating) but the other is barely playable. Fortunately the good one tends to last until the following shipment.

I love the reeds so much - they're super well made and work incredible. When I tried to work them in, I realized that they were a little too hard for the level that I'm at, but I 100% recommend them and will be buying a couple different types to see what works best for me
This was a present for my wife who is a talented bassoonist but had a very worn bassoon bag. She is very happy with her new one, and it looks great. Very happy.
The intermediate oboe reeds are resistant enough and not too noisy.
Suitable for orchestra!
