FHRED Endorsements
“Some operas are very long and you hardly ever put the instrument down. I use a FHRED whenever my hand and arm get tired or sore. It is easy to keep in my case, quick to attach and the conductor can't even see it. I find it flexible and unobtrusive. It has been a tremendous help. I own three (FHREDs) because my students are always borrowing them”.

“Thank you for your career saving product, the FHRED!! I now have 23 students using FHRED. Last week one of my students went to a regional orchestra festival and met a very talented young lady who had wrist surgery due to problems associated with over use. This very talented oboist was able to continue playing because she now uses a FHRED!!! Sometimes I play for 8 hours or more. I would not take my oboe anywhere without my FHRED! I use it everyday in my teaching and performing. Thank you for making it available to us!”

“Years of experience has taught me to be cautious about something new, especially when it involves a child’s learning experience, but this new version of the FHRED has proven itself to me in an unqualified manner.”

“I will never play without a FHRED. I use every opportunity to tell people about it. It has saved my career.”

I so admire brilliant designs of useful things -- designs that work because they are reduced to their simplest, most effective form. I want you to know I love your FHRED with all my heart. Please put my name on your list of people who have more joy in their lives because of you. I'm a beginner clarinet player who would have been forced to give it up because of ergonomic problems if not for your help. I'm thrilled to be able to continue to enjoy this delightful instrument. Thank you.

I was going to sell my English Horn and then I bought a FHRED and now I can play again! It's Wonderful! I also use one with my oboe so now I can play for longer periods of time without any pain.

I always use my FHRED when I play. I find it very easy to use, flexible, and of course it supplies the support I need. I truly couldn't play without it.
