Looking for an affordable reed for practice? The Dudukhouse Practice Reed is your perfect solution! Offered at a 50% discount, these reeds are designed for players who want an extra reed without the premium price tag.
These reeds didn’t pass our strict QA standards for tuning, meaning they aren’t perfectly in tune like our performance reeds. However, they still deliver great quality and are perfect for honing your skills.
Key Features:
-
Affordable: Get a quality reed at half the price of regular performance reeds.
-
Good for Practice: These reeds are ideal for practice sessions, especially if you’re just starting or need an extra reed to rotate through.
-
Tuning: Designed for duduks in A, Bb, G, or F, these reeds will tune up or down by half a tone depending on your instrument.
-
Perfect for Solo Play: If you’re not playing alongside a band or other instruments, the slight tuning deviation won’t make much of a difference.
-
Drone Practice: If you practice with a drone, just adjust your drone to half a step higher or lower to match the reed's tuning.
Please note: These reeds are not suitable for performance use, but they are an excellent choice for personal practice sessions, giving you a reliable, cost-effective option for improving your skills.

Important
Reed our extensive reed selection guide for more details.
- Reeds are made from natural material and are extremely sensitive to temperature and humidity changes.
- It is normal for reeds to behave inconsistently when you move to another location. For example, the reeds play well in your home but may behave differently when you go to perform at another location.
- All reed features have been tested in Toronto, Ontario where the average annual humidity levels are around 81.0%.
- The majority of medium and hard reeds tend to improve as you play them, although it is not always guaranteed (some will actually might play worse - so there is no foolproof formula for reeds).
- These reeds might not work with non-professional instruments purchased from Amazon or Etsy.
Disclosure
Dudukhouse strives to provide an accurate description of our reeds, based on our professional judgment and experience. However, when arriving at your location the reeds may have different sound qualities due to the humidity and temperature differences. As an organic product reeds can be influenced by these factors. At this time, there is no known method to ensure reed quality consistency around the world to prevent different environments from affecting the reeds.
With this being considered, Dudukhouse guarantees that all reeds have been thoroughly tested by an experienced duduk musician in our Toronto location. All reeds are tested, packed, and sent with care, love, and respect for our customers and fellow musicians.
