The Oboe BBoard

I decided to go with the H series Loree.
There are qualities to the rosewood and Laubin sound that are very appealing. I'm sure I'll return to try non-grenadilla instruments in the future.
There is absolutely a warmth to the rosewood Laubin that the Loree can't match. It calms "wilder" reeds. But the flipside is that it is harder to blow and doesn't have as much dynamic range. The pitch issues may be a bit of a draw and my embouchure and strength aren't yet at point for me to judge fairly. On some reeds, the Laubin is flat and the Loree is on pitch. On other reeds, the Laubin is on pitch and the Loree is sharp. Neither has any crazy pitch irregularities, although the Loree tends to drift a bit sharper in the higher register. The Loree may take more effort and attention to play consistently on pitch, but that may be a good thing in that the oboe won't protect bad habits as I continue my return to playing.
Thanks to all for participating in this process. The opportunity to compare various oboes was fascinating.
