Yes, I found it best to try them side by side, at the same time whether new or used. If you have a shop nearby where u can go, has a few oboes for u to try, then it is easy, no shipping u have to deal with, or deposits....some mail order outfits charge your credit card but dont submit it, till after the trial period (normally 7 days upon receipt) and upon receipt of the instrument back ! Of course, this is the US.
Oh yes, go with or test them with someone who is savvy and knows a good oboe too. So, the student wont be buying blind !
