A lip-reed wind instrument composed substantially, or in part, of carbon fiber reinforced composite laminate and an associated method to fabricate the instrument. Carbon fiber reinforced composite laminate is used to construct the tubular sidewalls of the instrument and is beneficial to the musical character. The high stiffness and low density of carbon fiber reinforced composite laminate increases the frequency of the instrument's vibration mode shapes allowing a favorable cooperation with musical pitch. The result is an instrument having improved projection as well as a brilliant timbre. The associated fabrication method describes the specialized tooling and the techniques to construct the laminate features of the instrument. The construction methods together with the improvements result in an instrument of higher precision allowing consistent play qualities for instruments of like design.
