To anyone considering investing in a pro duduk reed,
I suggest you get it from duduk.com. Why? It will transform your playing to pure musical ectasy! (After 8 days of frustration and disappointing agony with the Andranik Simonian reeds...) This reed looks and sounds wonderful- right off the bubble wrap! I was able to get all the notes-mostly in tune and with beautiful intonation in my A duduk, and I was even able to get full expressive musical phrases, without experiencing hardly any embouchure fatigue. The phrasing of bars, either staccato or legato, seemed more fluid, natural, more responsive with less need for "air pressure" resistance/support. I was able to maintain the tone through the piano to forte dynamics- it was a breakthrough to hear this Armenian duduk sing forth with such beauty! (At least for 3 to 4 minutes, he-he.) I will definitely get all of my reeds and duduks from Moses from now on, and I am 47, God willing of course! There are many many other holidays, like Father's Day and Christmas (but I will have to wait for Christmas, since I am still in the "dog house" for "wasting $200 on souvenirs on ebay"- my wife). I am very happy with this reed! I just hit the lottery of double reeds! Thank you again Moses! Regards, El Catalan  |

Regards, El Catalan El Catalan, Over the past 6 years I have bought 6 duduks (2 RR and 4 OMO) 3 OMO Bluls 2 OMO zurnas an RR shvi and plenty of reeds and they are all excellent instruments I was at a party one time jamming with guitars and everyone had to tune their instruments to my duduk because the duduk was the only instrument in tune!!! I would highly recommend any product that Moses sells They are truly wonderful.And don't worry about getting ripped off on e-bay I payed $130 for my first duduk off of e-bay and it turned out to be a $2 piece of junk. I only held on to it to show people the difference between a cheap souvenir and the real instruments from duduk.com. Cheers  Colin |

Cheers Colin Well, if this reed can "transform" my current duduk like that: improved tone quality- more warm, more resonant, then, can you even imagine how this reed will sound like with a pro duduk from duduk.com? Ummm...I can not wait until Christmas! El Catalan |
