Well,

I just had a chance to play a Hiniker Oboe.

My teacher just purchased one.

Here's my two cents:

The Oboe similar to my Marigaux is very reed friendly.

I produced a rich complex sound with a very lightly scraped reed - a reed that on a Loree would sound thin.

So - The sound is built into the instrument.

The instrument has a buoyant tone with a very stable scale.

It has a friendly - playful character to its sound. It is a mobile and flexible instrument. The scale is fluid and connected.

However, it does not have the "hot dark chocolate warmth" of my Marigaux.

Does it stand out as something - "exceptional". For me no.

It has its personality - so to play a Hiniker is personal preference.

A good choice - depending upon your conception of the Oboe tone/character.

I will stick to my Mariguax.

Mark
