The lifespan and performance of reeds vary individually and depend on the player’s technique, intensity of use, and proper care by the Buyer.
In the event of a complaint, the buyer should contact the seller by e-mail at info@oboe-reeds.com with a description of the goods complained about and the defect in the goods immediately after the defect is discovered. Complaints will be processed within 30 days of delivery.
