Reedpipes

Scope note

Use for simple pipes, used as complete and independent sound devices by themselves, in which the sound is produced through vibration of a single, double, or free reed; the pipes themselves may be made from reed, cane, wood, bone, or metal. For the organ pipes sounded by the vibration of a flexible metal reed, use "reed pipes."
