The Cherry Reed Conditioner ♭Flat Stick [Sento] is an essential reed surface adjustment stone for playing reed instruments such as clarinets, saxophones, oboes, and bassoons. Reeds may appear beautifully symmetrical at first glance, but they often have uneven surfaces or varying thicknesses. Until now, players had no choice but to accept their bad luck, but this project started from a simple question that even beginners might have while choosing a reed: "Isn't there something good that's easy to use?" By using Cherry's reed conditioner "♭Flat Stick," you can adjust the surface of your reeds, and reeds that you previously gave up on or threw away might become usable. The developer, who is also a clarinetist, conducted numerous tests, experimenting with size, coarseness, and other factors. This is a sharpening stone that will increase the number of usable reeds, and in this eco-conscious era of Reiwa, we hope everyone will have one along with the ♭Flat Stick. It's an easy-to-use size that fits comfortably in your hand, and can be kept in your instrument case or accessory pouch. Having more "usable reeds" means you'll have more time to enjoy music.
