Each box contains 300 pieces of 22 gauge cut bassoon reed wire. The pieces are cut to 75mm.

70/30: Yellow Brass Wire: (70% Copper, 30% Zinc, Lead-Free) – This is a balanced brass alloy that offers a good mix of flexibility and strength. It holds its shape well while allowing for easy adjustments. It’s a great all-purpose option.

85/15: Red Brass Wire: (85% Copper, 15% Zinc, Lead-Free) – With a higher copper content, this wire is softer and more malleable than yellow brass. It’s easier to adjust but may not hold its shape as firmly over time. Many reed makers like it for its ease of manipulation

NiAg: Lead Free Nickel Silver Wire – This wire is the stiffest of the three. It holds its shape extremely well and provides strong support to the reed. However, it’s less forgiving when making adjustments.
