Matthew,
Very interesting perspective -- thank you for sharing. I think it is very
interesting and goes to show that each person prefers their own sound and such.
Just as Matthew feels that the Josef oboes, less one, all produce the same
sound and color, I feel the same way about the Yamaha oboes. THey all sound and
feel exactly the same to me with no potential for color change -- at least
not with my reeds.

I think this is a perfect example of how each person must choose the oboe
that fits him or her and their reed styles and it shouldn't be a matter of name,
but rather a matter of what one plays/sounds best on.
