This is a vintage Cabart oboe (pre-Loree) with a left hand C# key. This custom C# key was added by the previous owner and looks very well done. This oboe does not have a left F key. I would recommend this oboe for an advancing student or amateur.  Features fully professional keywork with the exception of a left F key.  That includes:  All trill keys Split D key Forked F resonance  Low Bb resonance Articulated C#-B mechanism The plating is mostly good, but does look pitted in some areas. This does not affect the sound of the oboe. It plays very well in tune at A=440 with a pleasant light tone. This oboe has previously cracked and been professionally pinned (6 pins that I found) and sealed. The wood was nicely refinished and the pins are hard to locate. The top joint seals superbly and the oboe plays effortlessly down to low Bb. All cork pads Mechanism fully regulated Many nylon tipped screws for quiet key movements Brand new Protec case New Loree swab New oboe stand New 12-reed case with 3 professional handmade reeds made for this oboe All sales are final unless you feel the item was misrepresented in the description.
