Yamaha Oboe YOB441P with Case. In very nice condition. It is marked as a YOB441 but the top joint looks to be plastic. Matching serial numbers. US sales only. Here is what I found on this model: <p>An innovative concept in oboe design, the 441P combines the best of features of both other models for an oboe with rich warm granadilla tone, yet which is highly resistant to cracking. The lower joint and bell are of the same select quality grenadilla as the 441, but the upper joint is made of matte finish ABS resin for crack-proof durability.
