Hi Chris,

Tom's thinking is that he wishes to make his own version (vision) of oboe d'amore. One Hiniker prototype oboe d'amore exists, and it is fabulous.

As for the bass oboe, the new Hiniker bass oboe will be vastly different
from the modern "post-war" Loree bass oboe that seems to have been based on the Cabart bass oboe design with a myriad of subsequent "patches" and "fixes."
The new Hiniker bass oboe should have nearly the volume of sound that a post-war Heckelphone has.

Tom thinks that English horn would be the last instrument he would take on
engineering simply because so many makers produce such fine instruments already.

With best wishes,
Peter
