Gouged, Shaped, & Folded Oboe Cane

What are all these types of cane? Tube? Gouged? What is all this?
Oboe cane comes in a variety of stages of preparation. The less prepared the more control you have over the process, but the more equipment and training you need. Most people start reed making with gouged, shaped & folded cane. As you become more experienced you will want to start shaping your own cane so you have more control over the results. After the reed making bug has really bitten you, you'll want to start at the beginning of the process and gouge your own cane.
