About this item

• The Rico Reed Case for double reeds can accommodate up to eight reeds in any mix of oboe, English horn, oboe d'amore, and bassoon. Each case comes with a Reed Vitalizer refill pack that maintains a relative humidity of 73%.

  Rico's reed cases incorporate Reed Vitalizer Humidipak technology for optimal reed storage. This innovative method features two-way humidity regulation to enhance reed durability and prevent issues like warping and cracking. Reed Vitalizer packs automatically adjust to maintain the ideal humidity level within the case, functioning effectively for 45-60 days. Once the pack hardens, it should be replaced with a new one.

  After being acquired by D'Addario & Co., Rico has reinforced its status as a leading brand in woodwind reeds and accessories worldwide. The company's advanced reed research facility in Southern California employs a team of agronomists, researchers, and musicians dedicated to crafting high-quality reeds, including the Rico Reserve line for clarinet and saxophone. Rico reeds cater to musicians of all skill levels, from novices to experts. Numerous top woodwind performers, including Mark Nuccio, Jerry Bergonzi, Chris Potter, Benny Golson, Ernie Watts, Bob Sheppard, Henri Bok, Richie Hawley, Eric Alexander, and others, choose Rico reeds for their performances.
