Product Information from Ezeedrone:

Ezeedrone Bagpipe Drone Reeds were introduced over 25 years ago and have revolutionized the piping world. With numerous competition successes, there’s hardly a prize in the solo piping or pipe band scene that hasn’t been won by pipers playing Ezeedrone reeds – many major prizes have been won multiple times with these reeds!

These reeds are designed with a material that absorbs more moisture while maintaining the stability and tonal qualities associated with standard Ezeedrone reeds. To ensure optimum performance, it is recommended that these reeds be allowed to dry naturally after long playing sessions.

Crafted from a material boasting tonal qualities similar to natural cane, Ezeedrone bagpipe drone reeds produce a sound nearly indistinguishable from the best traditional cane reeds. Ezeedrone tenor reeds provide a pleasing double-tone when striking in, which translates to a full, steady drone tone when the bagpipe is played. Ezeedrone bass reeds offer equal steadiness and produce a rich, deep, quality sound, a hallmark of the best sounding bagpipes. Manufactured with precision and subjected to rigorous quality checks, Ezeedrone reeds are pre-adjusted and will settle immediately in most bagpipes, requiring little maintenance and producing excellent harmonics when paired with a well-balanced chanter reed.

Like the standard set, the body of these reeds is made from a material that effectively absorbs moisture from your breath, allowing for longer playing time before moisture affects your drones’ steadiness. This set features a short, inverted bass drone reed for more reliable strike-ins. As with standard Ezeedrone sets, the slightest movement of the rubber bridle significantly affects the reed’s pitch and strength. Lengthening the tuning screw in the reed’s end will make it flatter, tuning the drone top lower on the pin.

EzeeDrone reeds have been our best-selling drone reeds for the past 10 years. Designed to produce a rich tone and wonderful harmonics, the inverted bass reed enables an even deeper sound. The material used for the body of these reeds absorbs more moisture while maintaining the stability and tonal qualities of standard EZ Drone reeds. To ensure optimum performance, it is recommended that they be allowed to dry naturally after long playing sessions. Made in Scotland, these reeds must pass rigorous quality control standards and come pre-adjusted for easy setup. Instructions for proper installation and manipulation are included.

Benefits of the Inverted Bass Reed:

  • Alleviates the annoying roar persisting in some bass drones
  • Assists with striking the bass drone in cleanly (reducing growling on strike-in)
  • Slightly reduces the volume of air required by the bass drone
