Some choose a reed organ (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ear

'organ' is the definition.
(ear is a kind of organ)

'some choose a reed' is the wordplay.
'some' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue (some of the parts of the word are used).
'EAR' is hidden within 'choose a reed'.

(Other definitions for ear that I've seen before include "Place for a plug" , "Ability to recognise sounds" , "Shell-like (slang)" , "Heed" , "Attention; an organ" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
