they sort of refuse to make cocobolo oboes for us anymore, because of cracking issues and after their utter shock arriving here...Mind you, I'm sure we're much more humid than, say, Arizona.
Ha, that's funny. I play a Cocobolo Howarth XL and I live in Arizona, and despite it being lined in the top joint, the side wall of the top did split about 3 inches long, but fortunately it didn't go deep and David Weber filled it with Super Glue.
