The Fox oboes are great instruments, but again, try out a few, and see what you like. I play on a Fox 400 (all wood), and I have students that are using Fox 330's (all plastic). I can feel a difference in the instruments, but they sound and react very similar to my oboe. They're relatively new also. The band director bought them in 2006 or 2007, just after I was hired on.
I played on some AK Loree's recently, and really liked them, and if I could afford it right now, I would probably switch, after I of course tried out more oboes from different makers and got mine overhauled to see how much of a difference that makes. But for quality, Fox is a great horn and they seem to be pretty consistent between horns.
