Subj: [kl] Greenline repair
Date: Thu, 23 Feb 2006 08:26:03 -0500


Dear Jen,
It can most definitely be repaired. A very similar break happened to my
Greenline oboe a few years ago.
The right people to send it to are Buffet themselves. It can be repaired as
Bill described (with Greenline, though) or a new top joint can be fitted. It
will have to go to France to be done. I chose the repair option, as I like
the instrument very much. Even knowing what was done, the repair is virtually
impossible to see. Here is their info:
