Here are a few things customers are saying
about Desert Rose Professional bassoon reeds:

"I recently ordered two professional reeds from you. I had previously ordered reeds from two other sources.
Your reeds were by far the most playable of the three sources I tried right out of the box."
"Thank you for making a good product at a reasonable price. For those of us who have returned after an
absence of decades to playing the bassoon and trying to make reeds again, it is very helpful to have a source
where you can buy finished reeds that really are playable."

   -- from an adult bassoonist in Idaho

"I just ordered two more reeds from you. I previously let you know how pleased I was with your reeds and
you kindly sent me a return message. I can tell you that I have tried supposed professional reeds from
several sources, and the performance of your reeds without adjustment is head and shoulders above any of
the others I have tried. I am still truing to make reeds, but my reed making skills are rusty from a decades
long lay off from playing. I have been working with 40 year old cane, so I don't know if that might have
  anything to do with the less than stellar results I am getting. Again, I love your reeds!"

-- from an adult bassoonist in California

"I wanted to thank you for your time in creating these reeds. I have just begun playing bassoon again
after not being able to play in college for 4 years and am very excited to start back with your reeds as
my first! I have heard tremendous positive reviews and am looking forward to trying them out."

-- from an adult bassoonist in Texas

"I absolutely love your reeds."

-- from a student bassoonist in Oregon

"Desert Rose Reeds from Richard Ramey are the best, most consistent reeds I have encountered. Believe me,
I have tried a LOT of commercial reeds. Richard Ramey’s reeds are hardly “commercial reeds.” They are
quite possibly the best example of a “Herzberg reed” one can imagine, and the consistency is remarkable."

                  -- from a university bassoon professor in New York
