This was considered a Professional level of the time Loree Oboe in amazing condition for an oboe made in 1899 Grenadilla Wood oboe with a old repaired crack in the top joint the repair is stable and has no effect on the playing of this oboe and a small repaired crack in the bell The bore looks excellent no scratches or water lines. Restored to excellent playing condition, restored in 2008 The body is made entirely of Grenadilla wood. All wood has been treated with my bore oil treatment. All keys were removed cleaned. See pic's Key work in nickel silver Conservatory ring key system No Left F no F resonance key Range to low Bb I have play tested this oboe and made intonation adjustments. This oboe has very nice intonation at A= 440. and a nice sweet tone and plays free very little resistance. A joy to play !! It comes in a new KACES oboe case. I emailed F.Loree- De Gourdon asking the age of this Oboe and they replied that this oboe serial # N25 was made in 1899 and it is possible that Mr Francois Loree made this instrument.. Here is your chance to play on a peace of history. I am selling it because I need the $$ I hit a deer and totaled my car. When your self employed it is hard to get an auto lone My pain is your gain.
