1. Blowpipe
The blowpipe is the main body of the electric blowpipe, generally made of metal. When playing the electric blowpipe, it is placed on the lips to blow air to produce sound. Blowpipes vary in length, and different lengths will directly affect the pitch of the played sound. Another important design point of the blowpipe is the mouthpiece. The size and shape of the mouthpiece affect the difficulty of playing the electric blowpipe and the timbre performance.
2. Reed
The reed is the core component of the electric blowpipe sound generation, generally made of metal or plastic. The reed is U-shaped, and it is clamped between two reed support systems. When the electric blowpipe plays a sound, the reed vibrates to produce a timbre. The thickness, hardness and texture of the reed determine the characteristics of the sound produced.
3. Reed support system
The reed support system is composed of a mouthpiece, a reed socket and a shoulder strap ring. The reed socket is composed of two metal plates, with a reed clamped on the top and a spring support on the bottom. The shoulder strap ring can hang the electric blowpipe on the shoulder for easy playing. The mouthpiece is the part of the electric blowpipe that directly contacts the lips, and the sound is adjusted by the pressure of the mouth and the blowing.
4. Fixing screws
The fixing screws are the components that fix the various components together. They can adjust the position and length of each component, and ensure that the structure of the electric blowpipe is stable and not easy to damage.
5. Mouthpiece
The mouthpiece is the end part of the electric blowpipe, and there are two types: mouth-shaped and round. Mouthpieces with mouthpiece shapes are usually used to play high notes, while round mouthpieces are used to play low notes. The size and shape of the mouthpiece determine the performance timbre and volume when playing.
