Product information "RedWood Drone Reeds - Set"
The RedWood Drone Reeds are a regular set of drone reeds for the Great Highland Bagpipes, designed and created by Xavier and Jakez Boderiou.
These reeds offer a unique crossover between traditional cane drone reeds and modern synthetic reeds. The reed bodies are made from padouk, also known as African red wood, which provides excellent absorption and stability. This helps create a warm, natural sound with reliable performance.
The tenor reeds are fitted with glass fibre tongues, while the bass drone reed uses a carbon fibre tongue. This combination gives the reeds strong tonal character, excellent stability, and low maintenance, making them a practical choice for regular playing.
Each set of RedWood reeds is tested on several instruments to help ensure good compatibility with your bagpipe.
