I had a Loree BB oboe and then a BF oboe. The BB was rather poor, being very stuffy on the middle register F-sharp, G, and G-sharp and also the midddle register C was sharp and had to be lowered. On the other hand the BF was very good with neither of the BB problems. The only thing I had to do was reduce the low B-flat resonance hole, as it made the pitch too sharp. Otherwise, the intonation was very even. As it was noticeably heavier than the BB, it must have been a "thick-wall" model. There was/is a Loree series called "Royal" which was much more expensive, but I never played on one. Could that be the same as the "XL" series mentioned? As Robin Tropper stated, you really have to make a reed or two for the specific intrument you're considering, to be sure if its right for you. Regards.
