Oboe Reed Soaking Cup with Stand clamp.

Description

This reed soaking cup with spring clamp
This reed soaking cup with spring clamp is designed to soak oboe and bassoon reeds in the cup during ensemble rehearsals and performances with the cup clamped securely on music stands it fits most stands.
See pic's Now your  reeds can be safe off the floor  no longer vulnerable to spilling, and damage the reeds can be soaked in  the soaking cup clamped on music stands.  The reeds should be placed in the cup during rehearsals and performances. It is advisable to soak oboe reeds for 2 to 4 minutes. Over soaking the reeds is not advisable, as it can affect the quality and response of the oboe reeds and shorten the lifespan of the reed. It is advisable to soak only the reeds that will be used in the rehearsal or performance, since placing over soaked reeds in a reed case can cause the reeds to mold. Be sure reeds are dry before placing them in a reed case.
These cups  will not leak when cover is in place.
Very use full in school's and at concerts where it can be hard to find water.
I put a 1/2 inch of water with a drop of mouth wash in the water to help keep any bacteria from growing.
You should  replace the water often.
These are made from new unused film style containers that have never had any chemicals in them!
