Having a great instrument makes a huge difference to a player of any level. A better quality instrument is easier to blow (especially for low notes), has well designed key work (beginner oboes are very "clunky"), has a a superior tone and is better in tune. It also also an individual's musicality to shine through as it has more flexibility. A new instrument costs a lot, so a second hand oboe can be a great option.
There is a perception that higher level instruments are for higher level players but this is definitely not the case! The better the instrument one plays on, the more joy one gains from playing. People of Grade 6 and above do need to be playing on quality wooden instrument however. By the time one is studying for a diploma or doing Performance oboe at Uni, one needs a professional level instrument (although those who have one before this are at an advantage).

If you are interested in selling an oboe, please contact me for more details. I sell on a commission basis and instruments must be of good quality and have been serviced recently. I can prepare an advertisement for you for a small fee and will promote your instrument on this website and to oboists and teachers who may be interested in buying a second hand instrument..
