 Re: Oboe Yamaha-yob-211 - is it an oboe?

I've found the tone on the student Buffets (made by Schreiber) to be thin and bland without much tonal weight, so maybe darker sounding reeds will be best suited to them to add some depth of tone. One area of weakness is the middle socket which only has a thin shell of wood supporting it at the socket ring (the entire inside of the socket is resin) - I've seen several that have broken at the socket ring due to carelessness.

Former oboe finisher
Howarth of London
1998 - 2010

The opinions I express are my own.
