This is a Buffet 4121 student Oboe, with an independent (standard) octave system and thumbplate. This model has a plastic lined bore to prevent cracks. It goes down to low Bb, so basically has the set up to take you all the way through to grade 6ish. It has been regularly serviced and well maintained, as is apparent by it's condition. No damage to any pads and the silver is bright and shiny. The case is also unscathed. A reed will be provided too when sold. I am selling on behalf of a relative but am also a player so can answer any questions you might have
