Re: Need advice for oboe

In Southern California RDG Woodwinds (West Hollywood area) and Michele Forrests (Glendale area) sell new and used oboes. They are well respected oboe repair specialists in the area.

You can request a pricing for what oboes they have in stock so you have a heads up before you visit.

These are their websites:
Michele Forrest:

RDG Woodwinds:
http://www.rdgwoodwinds.com/contact_us.php

If you're prepared to purchase an oboe you should bring the oboe teacher along to help sort better oboes out in your price range.

If you go to Vegas, you can stop by Kessler Music. The owner is an oboist and they stock Rigoutat RIECs and Loree.

Outside of that you may want to call your local Sam Ash stores to see what they have laying around. They have interesting used instruments from time to time for insanely low pricing. The Redondo Beach Sam Ash had a older professional Rigoutat selling for around $1500 a couple months ago.
