Welcome to the Colorado Reed Company. My name is Jennifer Ownby, the owner and reedmaker. I provide handmade oboe and English horn reeds to professionals, students, and anyone in-between who wants a high-quality reed without having to go through the trouble of making it.

NEWS:

  • I'd like to remind everyone of two services I offer - my Recaning Service, where I recycle your oboe and English horn staples and put reeds on them for a discounted price - only $12.95 per reed. I also offer reed subscriptions. This can help to avoid any pre-concert "I DON'T HAVE A REED!" panic, as your invoices and reeds are sent to you automatically.

  • The Colorado Reed Company is now a "we"! Stay tuned for more details about Justine, who will be helping me with lots of things around here.
  • I've just improved the layout of this website. I'm still ironing out some kinks, though. I've added some new features to the order page - you may now choose your shape for the Professional reeds, and you may choose your gouge AND shape for processed oboe cane. Go check it out!

  • FREE SHIPPING VIA USPS FIRST-CLASS MAIL. Express mail is still an extra $20.00. I will ship international first-class mail orders for free as well. This counts for subscriptions, phone orders, mail orders... everything!

  • Current wait list length is between one and two weeks, but shrinking. Orders will be processed strictly on a first-come, first-served basis. Your patience is appreciated!
