It's not just endorsements. There are many reasons:

1. Always looking for something better.
2. Wanting to have the latest design improvements.
3. Oboes get blown-out -- they start to lose some of their tone (i.e., whatever was attractive about the tone) and maybe some of the pitches are not as stable as they used to be.

I know many oboists who change instruments frequently (i.e., less than 5 years). I don't know any who are making money from endorsements although of course someone does.
