Selbie Imitation Cane Drone Reed Set
Selbie Imitation Cane Drone Reeds have been designed to provide the stability of a synthetic reed while providing the tonal qualities found in the finest cane reeds.
One of the main features of the Selbie reed is T shaped tongue system. The T shape formed tongued fits into the precision engineered reed body. This eliminates the need to glue tongues to the body. It allows the tongue to be removed and cleaned of any residue or seasoning if a reed were to fall into the pipe bag. It can then be refitted to the reed body and set to its original position.
The reeds have been developed to fit most makes of pipes. Black waxed hemp can be added to the rubber sleeve to ensure a secure fit.
Prior to dispatch, the reeds have been tested for pitch and strength, and are delivered with instructions on how to fine tune the reed to obtain the perfect balance between chanter and drones.
Crozier Cane Drone Reeds
Crozier Cane Drone reeds are the second generation of the original “Ross Reed” that was first manufactured in 1985. The new release coincided with the 20th anniversary of the original reed that was made from a black plastic body with a flat sealed cane tongue.
Identical in manufacturing methods and using the original tools and machinery, the Crozier Cane Reeds are equal to their predecessor in operation and performance but with a modern body design. Due to the increasing pitch of bagpipes in the last 20 years, the new Crozier Cane Reeds are now made to a higher pitch to suit today’s piper

Crozier Drone Reeds also feature a fixed tongue support that sits in a recess at the end of the reed body for stability. The reeds are very easy to set up using the airtight tuning plug and bridle for tonal alterations and have been designed for pipers ranging from beginners to the most advanced pipers

Crozier Omega Drone Reeds
Crozier Omega Drone Reeds are the worlds most unique synthetic drone reed where the reed body is curved down to allow the flat carbon fiber tongue to vibrate. The degree of curvature on the reed body is adjusted with a small grub screw located in one of three positions on the underside of the reed.
The unique design avoids ever having to spring the tongue and the choice of three screw positions allow for pitch and tonal preferences. Replacing the traditional bridle is a tuning clip that slides on a small track on the reed and is fixed into position with a small grub screw. Pitch and/or tonal adjustments can also be made by altering the position of the rubber tuning plug.
