Product Description:

We have recaptured the wide tonal spectrms and resonance that were the hallmarks of the treasured oboes of the past.  While re-discovering the beautiful sound of those cherished older instruments, we have used our high-tech design expertise to perfect the playability and to provide remarkably precise intonation.  And we have given these oboes a response so comfortable, so natural, that the instrument all but disappears in your hands
