[blueoboe313]

He didn't teach us how to make um he just showed us that he knew how to make them

[Pheonixlgnd]

it did sound brutal to me too.. haha but still he's pretty good

[samisama98]

Wow he thought he sounded brutal, then I can't begin to explain wat I sound like

[curlyfangs]

I can't believe he thought it sounded brutal.. I'd love to sound like that!

[cyprisjustin]

[Rambuzzle]

Ha he thinks that sounds 'pretty brutal', I'm guessing he hasn't heard a factory made reed in a while...

What a very interesting video. My favourite oboist has always been Gordon Hunt but you are now also one of my favouirte oboists.

At 2:05, what part of the reed did he cut a little bit off of to smooth out the sound, the tip or the heart?

Thanks

The gouging machine he's using is a Ross Gouging machine, which is priced around $1000. Others usually cost between $1500-$2000.
