Joel Robinson's workshop has ~1 year waiting list now. The Saxon was recommended to me. Might be useful that there is an accompanying staple and also shapers (by Stephen Hammer) for it.

Yup, staples and cane shape is something that you have to sort out since there isn't a standard. I'm sort of in that conundrum now. IMHO, 2-piece staples are a pain in the butt as the bottom end always gets stuck in the instrument. I bought a random 1-piece for experimentation but it is extremely different from the 2-piece so I've been crimping and doing all sort of things to it. If you buy an oboe, make sure you get a staple or two that was designed for the instrument, else you might never get a decent sound out of it. Find a teacher, which may not be too difficult in your area. Lots of concepts are OPPOSITE that of modern oboe.
