Gouged cane for bassoon: Rouché - density tested

Product number: INNEN-DICHTE-ROUCHE Manufacturer:
Rouché's density-tested, gouged cane has a significantly lower variance in terms of hardness and playing characteristics than untested cane.

Density testing, a process developed by Jean-Marie Heinrich, has made reed making much easier for bassoonists. Our density-tested, gouged Rouché cane is of consistent quality and reduces the amount of discarded cane and time required for reed making.

Our density classifications:

  • Low density: 55-61
  • Medium density: 62-65
  • High density: 66-70
  • Very high density: 71-76
  • Extremely high density: 77+
