I too would be interested to hear from some German oboists on this matter. The way Maddy Aldis-Evans writes, it seems she expects those measurements to be a surprise to her reader. She implies her gouge is unusually thin.

I've been re-reading the Ledet book this week. Good book, the sort every oboist should re-read from time to time. He measured the center gouge thickness of eleven German reeds. They are .61, .61, .56, .58, .71, .63, .68, .56, .58, .56, and .56. For what it's worth, that's an average of .60, which is pretty much the norm here in the US. Granted, those figures are representative of German reeds several decades ago.

Any German oboists in the forum? I'd love to hear about the sort of gouges you're using nowadays.

Cheers,
Drew
