  • Wygent "Synthe-Drone" Drone Reeds Because the body of the reed is fashioned from a cellulose (woodfibre) polymer, they produce a tonal range  identical to cane, butwith none of the drawbacks associated with that substance. Capable of fullmid-tone reproduction, they are a rich full sounding reed. And with theaddition of a threaded tuning pin at the bottom, they are fully adjustable- from a clear, bold sound, to a more muted "solo" blend. They are preadjusted,virtually impervious to moisture and temperature changes, and are extremelys teady.
  • Each reed is handmade, individually adjusted and tested in a drone priorto shipment. They are not mass produced. * They come with a retaining elastic must be removed.
