I just bought a B series from the 60s I think. I love it. It's actually a little longer than modern Lorees, and thinner in the bore I believe. Before I purchased the instrument, I did have John Symer take a look at it and make sure there were no cracks that couldn't be fixed, and that the bore was true. Everything was fine, and I'm quite happy with the purchase. The instrument I purchased was in exquisite condition, and I've seen some used instruments that were not takes as good care of. I'd do your homework, but there's no need to disregard perfectly usable instruments due to age.

Check out Peter Hurd's site. It's very helpful regarding specific Loree models. http://www.oboes.us/resources/makers.html
