Re: Help me pick an oboe

I always recommend 2 used instrument dealers that really care for their instruments well.

Peter Hurd http://www.oboes.us/
Hannah Selznik http://www.hannahsoboes.com/

There are certainly many others like them who will choose an excellent one for you and send by mail - including trial periods. I recommend these 2 because I had correspondence with them and their character and care left a strong impression on me.

Used is often better than new because the kinks have been worked out and you can get a pro model with a resin top joint that won't crack for the price of a new student model that may reveal problems over time.

Best of luck!
