Having destroyed my right thumb joint by hanging oboes and English horns off of it for fifty years, I've tried every type of support known including a few of my own devising.

By far the best I've come across is made by the Chicago Reed Company. It takes all the weight, yet is not rigid like a floor peg. I give it 5 stars!

Let Grover Schiltz, former EH with the Chicago Symphony, tell you about it:

Good luck in your efforts to keep playing...
