interesting

C# my Yamaha 441 no problem with fuzziness, tended to be too bright and also sharp if anything, but had assumed that was often grim-lipped me, or sharp old reeds -- but maybe not ...

the H.H. is a vertical slit that is shaped just like the aperture of a reed, curved each long side and open in the centre, pointed and closed on the top & bottom -- high D on up though, they're always very sharp on this oboe and quite whiny

as a comparison Bulgheroni's is just a medium-small round hole (occupies a fraction less than half the diameter of the HH well) and haven't found C# is fuzzier or brighter than D or Eb, and it's easier to lip high notes down to pitch than Yamaha
