It looks like the problem with the Barber excerpt may be specific to Apple's Safari web browser. I'm not a computer genius, so I'm not sure why this is happening. Please try visiting the site using another browser (such as Firefox), and do let me know if you still have problems. Thanks for listening!

Regarding wood choice, I am indeed finding quite a difference between my two Hiniker oboes (one grenadilla and one cocobolo). I have had the opportunity to play three other Hiniker oboes, all grenadilla instruments, and they were all remarkably similar. By this I mean there seems to be less variation from one Hiniker to the next, compared to other makes I have played extensively (probably due to Tom's absolute meticulous attention to detail and precise measurement, and maybe also due to the fact that he is using "super aged" wood, which is very stable). Having said this, the cocobolo instrument certainly is exhibiting a unique "personality," compared to its grenadilla cousins. I am having a great time exploring this difference, and (even though I still love my grenadilla horn) I am quickly becoming a huge cocobolo fan!
