OBOE: absolute top-quality pro model
Famous Hans Kreul oboe, the ones that beat Loree in the Nora Post Oboe Blow-Out blind test at an oboist convention (Loree came in 7th!!!....name means nothing when it's a blind test....only sound does!)
If you know about oboes, you know this is a bargain price........pro oboes cost many $1000's brand new.
NO PAYPAL (cf. paypalsucks, paypalwarning....both are dot coms)....USPS Postal Money Orders only, thank you.
NO FREE TRIALS, I'm not a store.

Wood is just beautiful, fine-grained from the time when the best wood was still plentiful.

low Bb resonance
alternate C
single ring perforated D
the usual professional assortment of trills

My embouchure is gone, but I did manage to play it to the bell Bb on a horrible reed left over from years ago. I'd guess some adjustments would be in order since it's been unused for a while, but I'm not sure.
I brought it to my tech and he gave it a basic test and said it was still really tight and appeared in fine condition.
Cork pads on stack keys.
c. early '70's.
