From my experience, I recommend asking Tom for a copy of the exact same DESIGN of oboe he plays- bore dimensions, tone hole placement/ sizing, undercutting scheme- no matter what the material the oboe may be made from.
As Chris P points out, the polymer sleeve is a blessing for an exotic wood oboe. Personally, I do not think that the sleeve has any discernable
effect on the sound of the instrument.
