Reed plaque (white) with finishing cloth set
Reed plaque (white) with finishing cloth set
A good, inexpensive reed plaque is hard to find. Especially one that is unbreakable, non-toxic, food grade, HDPE polyethylene. (And if you wanted to cut really small vegetables on this with a really, really, small knife, you could do that, because this is the same material they make cutting boards from.)
In addition, we've got a starter set of 3M micro-fine non-woven reed sanding + polishing cloth. The coarsest of the sheets is 600 grit (30 micron), and it goes all the way down to 14,000 grit (1 micron). Why so fine? Well, I've found that once you've got a great reed, polishing it will keep it in top condition longer! If your reed is feeling a bit meh, polishing it may bring it back to life.
Here's what you get:
- One food-grade plaque: 4" long x 1" wide x 1/4" thick (10 cm x 2.5 cm x .6 cm)
- Six pieces of non-woven polishing cloth, about 4"x4" (10cm x 10cm), one each in 30-, 15-, 9-, 6-, 3-, 2-, and 1-micron. You can fold each cloth into quarters, or cut them into smaller pieces. (I tend to fold them.)

Hey... yeah, I was convinced by the tutorial video that sanding reeds is crucial, so I bought this kit and found out that, yes indeed, it is like tuning an indy car (your clarinet) to perfection. Minor tweaks work miracles and the tutorial video does a very good job explaining what parts of the reed dictate which action on the horn. Earspasm is a hero.
I wish I had gotten this earlier! My reeds are as smooth as glass and this finishes them perfectly. They feel amazing and are much more refined. Definitely worth investing in!
Perfect, I am spreading the news of your reed products along with the youtube video you did on reed adjustment.
I wish I'd ordered this years earlier. Paid for itself immediately turning a pile of meh reeds 90% into winners.
This Reed plaque with polishing cloth kit is super useful. Working on reeds is a hassle and this makes it much easier. Really glad I found this product!
