Good quality medium-hard bassoon reed

I am a good level amateur (post grade 8) playing on a good Adler Sonora bassoon, but I find that many of the reeds offered by professional players who also sell reeds are too hard for me and my instrument, even ones sold as being of medium strength. Unfortunately I don't have the training to make adjustments to such reeds so that they are playable for me. I have shopped around over the years for a brand of reed that is consistently suitable for me and eventually hit upon these. They are not entirely consistent in quality I feel, but I have purchased about 9 or 12 in recent years and have found that nearly all have been useable after a few weeks of 'breaking in'. I would definitely recommend trying these if you're looking for a more medium style of reed.

Importing your reeds to France.

Although very pleased with the quality of your reed, I was not happy at having to pay 13 euros in customs charges to my local post office. Maybe you can find a way around this.

Two leaky reeds

Both reeds seem to leak air slightly around the crook, and are hard work to play. May be able to scrape them to get freer playing but the leak adds an irritating “fizz” to the sound which I haven’t found a way to improve.

Really smooth

The KGE bassoon reed makes for really smooth playing. It have used it for a couple of days now - will it turn out too smooth on the longer term? However, for now it is a sheer delight.
