As you might have guessed, I know nothing (well, not very much) about oboe's. Anyway, I have a Gerhard Rudolf Uebel Oboe, serial # 906, made in 1938. Can anyone give me any info on the maker? History? The horn is also stamped ss14!?? Thanks for any info., Ken

Here is some info on Uebel:
Gerhard Rudolf Uebel (1915-1991) was a member of an instrument makers family with a tradition dating back to 1878. The F.Arthur Uebel company is still making clarinets in Markneukirchen (Germany). G.Rudolf was a nephew of F.Arthur and took over the production of flutes when F.Arthur passed away in 1963. The clarinet workshop went to his brother Max Werner, who continued making clarinets under the brand name of his uncle. The company is now no longer family owned and resides under Triumph Adler AG (together with Courtois,Strasser-Marigaux and Meinl). The production of flutes apparently ended with the death of G.Rudolf Uebel in 1991.
