Kunibert Michel Pre Gouger

Product number: VORHOBEL-MICHEL-X Manufacturer:
160,00€ per piece*
Kunibert Michel achieved an all time classic with this pre gouger: a long lasting blade (for thousands of pieces of cane) and a really clean, precise cut.

A tip from us: hold and push the 1Dpusher 1D at an angle of 45°. A flatter angle can cause the cane to rise or even slip off the bed.

We also stock the relevant replacement pre gouger blade.

Since 1969, the Kunibert Michel company has been making reed-making machines and accessories for oboe and bassoon – including shaper-tip cutters, profiling and gouging machines as well as dial indicators. It all began with a request from oboist Günther Zorn, for whom Kunibert Michel developed his first profiler. From the very beginning, Georg “Charly” Willig has been responsible for producing the gougers – expertise that still defines the special quality of these machines today. The company has thus always been one of the world’s most important names for high-precision, handcrafted reed-making machines.

After the death of the company’s founder in 2015, the business has been continued by Nicole Willig-Pachaly. With proven craftsmanship and many years of experience, durable machines and tools continue to be made and are in use in professional reed-making workshops around the globe.
