Recommended Accessories:  

• 4 working reeds:  Reeds wear out with use and do not last all year. Don’t wait until you break your last reed to buy more.  Try to have 4 working reeds at all times.  A “working” reed is light tan in color and is not chipped, cracked or more than a month old.
• Reed case that holds at least 4 reeds.
• Cork grease.
• Swab designed for your instrument. Silk works best but cotton swabs are also acceptable.  Do not use felt swabs as they smear the water instead of absorbing it.  
• Soft cloth (cotton or flannel).
