(I HAVE NEVER TRIED A LAUBIN, HENCE QUITE UNCLEAR WHAT "LAUBINISH" MEANS. IS IT IN TERMS OF SOUND, ENGINEERING, KEYWORK HANDLING, WHAT ? IS THIS THE SAME MARTIN SCHURING THAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT? EXCUSE MY IGNORACE.)

(AGAIN, HAVE NEVER TRIED THE NEW RIGOUTAT J, EITHER, HOW IS THE J DIFFERENT FROM THE EXPRESSION, EVOLUTION AND SYMPHONY ?)

(I WOULDNT SAY THAT RIGOUTAT HAS THE GREATEST FINISH. BUT FOR ABOUT USD10K, I EXPECT THE LAUBIN TO BE IMMACULATELY FINISHED, WITH NO DINKS TO THE SILVER KEYWORK, OR ANY HINTS OF TARNISHING WHICH WAS NOT SO FOR THE NEW RIGOUTAT. LIKE U SAID "ROUGH". PERHAPS THE RIGOUTAT "J " IS DONE MUCH BETTER COMPARED TO PREVIOUS GENERATION LINES OF OBOES? ANY COMMENTS ?)

(I THOT NORA SELLS RIGOUTAT, LOREE AND OTHERS. I THINK SHE STOPPED SELLING MARIGAUX FOR SOME REASON OR OTHER. I DONT THINK SHE IS AN AGENT FOR LAUBIN. BUT YES, SHE HAS ARTICLES ON COMPARISONS ON THE BRANDS SHE SELLS. SHE HAS A LAUBIN HERSELF, BUT HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO GET HER TO COMMENT ON THE LAUBIN. IT MIGHT BE ONE OF THOSE CONFLICT OF INTEREST THINGS TO TALK ABOUT AS SHE DOES REPRESENT OTHER TOP BRANDS. IT IS HARD TO GIVE A OBJECTIVE COMMENT WITHOUT HINTING AT SOME SUBJECTIVITY, AND I DONT BLAME HER. SHE TOO HAS HER LIKES AND DISLIKES.)
