Re: R. Dupin Cocobolo oboe

I have tested the oboe and have it on approval (I also got a chance to test the legere synthetic reeds (a whole other story)) and it turns out whilst trying it I met Stella Dickinson (if you know her) who was a former owner of the oboe! So I found out quite a bit about the instrument (i.e. it is one of the six(? (As chris suggested earlier)) dupins with a serial number showing info on date of manufacture etc..)

The oboe is amazing, post service the wood and silver is a lot brighter (esp. The cocobolo), its quite I bright tone and whilst resistant I found it quite versatile! I'm highly tempted to make the leap after the week on approval so yeah..

Thanks for all the help,
AKE
