Most first purchases are just the ney; weeks later come the case, oil and cleaning cloth. A proper starter set solves that in one order.
1. The ney
La-tuned Kiz ney, medium reed. Low breath resistance makes the first sound easiest.
2. Case or bag
Hard case for home and travel, padded bag for daily carrying.
3. Sesame oil
Pure sesame oil only. Rose oil and perfume damage the reed.
4. Cleaning cloth
Remove moisture after every session; the simplest habit against cracking.
5. Spare headpiece
Optional, but practical.
