Nope, can't find anything else wrong with the oboe, and yup, it's better with some reeds. I had really good luck getting reeds to play today. i found the reeds played better when i scraped the backs and throats more. On some of the reeds the top line F is sharp and unstable in pitch, but some are fine. In general, the Yamaha 241 plays easier, smoother, and is more stable than the 441, but the 441 has a more complex tone. I think it's almost time to go oboe shopping, just have to generate some cash. Lots of cash!
