Hi Joepie,
I find that the Marigaux "Altuglas" has a sound indistinguishable from a wood Marigaux. And the "Altuglas" is an all around oboe, suitable for all musical endeavor. Has plenty of presence, sweetness, and lyrical subtlety without being a "reed trumpet." Way too expensive though. In 2008, the price was circa $10,500.
While the Buffet Greenline oboe tends to have an impeccable scale, it very much seems in my estimation to be in the category of "reed trumpet"- brassy, "in your face," like nails on a blackboard. And, despite the hype to the contrary, the Buffet Greenline oboe can crack. I have now had report of two Buffet Greenline oboes having cracked and being unrepairable.
Beware.

With best wishes,
Peter
