Reed Health
Keeps reeds at the perfect humidity level. This avoids warping and keeps them playable longer.
Boveda Humidity Packs
This is my go-to reed case! Stores 8 reeds at a time, plus has a slot for your humidity pack! These cases are also the perfect size to store inside a sandwich bag for added humidity protection.
MultiReed Storage Case | D'Addario
These patches protect your mouthpiece from teeth marks, prolonging its lifespan.
Vandoren Mouthpiece Cushions
Comfort
My thumb used to dislocate every time I played my instrument - this adjustable thumb rest has solved that problem!! Just get a repair tech to install it for you and you're good to go.
Kooiman "Etude 3" Thumbrest
If you get upper body strain while playing, a neck strap can be a great investment! This strap helps to take the weight off of your thumb while playing.
Protec Neoprene Neck Strap
Keeping your corks greased is important for making sure your instrument stays healthy! This tub is a bit of an investment but will last much longer than a traditional stick. A little goes a long way!
Doctor Slick Cork Grease
Protection & Transport
For those juggling both Bb and A clarinets, this double case is perfect for keeping both instruments safe together! Plus, it comes with extra storage pockets on the sides for reeds, screwdrivers, and any other supplies you may need.
Protec Bb/A Double Clarinet Case
This is my savior during long rehearsals. Helps keep your clarinet safe and your hands free! Provides a balanced base to avoid tipping the instrument over.
K&M Clarinet Stand
This has been such a lifesaver for my at-home practice sessions. The bag it comes with is also super helpful for gigs where I need to bring my own stand!
Compact Folding Music Stand with Bag
This little pouch is amazing for keeping my mouthpiece safe! My mouthpiece was a huge investment, so keeping it safe was a no-brainer for me.
Vandoren Mouthpiece Pouch
For Woodwind Doublers
As a doubler myself, I totally understand how hard it can be juggling multiple instruments! These recommendations have saved my life when doing pit orchestras.
Hercules stands are the only stands I trust to put multiple instruments on! When switching instruments quickly, it's easy to bump and knock things over. This prevents that.
Hercules Saxophone Stand with Flute/Clarinet Peg
For those juggling MANY instruments, this may be a better option than the 2-instrument option.
Hercules Stand for Alto, Tenor, and Soprano Saxophones, and Flute/Clarinet
For dark pits with minimal lighting, even a small lamp like this one can be such a lifesaver when trying to read difficult passages!
K&M Stand Light
The French Cut reed pictured is my go-to, but any high-quality synthetic reed is worth the investment for woodwind doublers! These reeds don't require wetting or humidity adjustment, meaning you can put it down for a long time and pick it back up rig...
