Most all of the Kreul oboes simply marked "Hans Kreul, Tubingen"
will be the "standard weight" (medium wall) model.
And I can not recall a "heavy weight" Kreul model oboe ever having less that the full "Buck Rogers" complement of professional model key-work.
The Kreul oboe is (in my estimation) about the most "forgiving" oboe I know of.
Kreul oboes seem to "lock in" on pitch centers. Difficult to play "bad note" on a Kreul oboe. And easy to make reeds for compared to just about any other make of oboe.
Still, I very much like having split ring D. However, some oboes without split ring D
(such as some of the Loree-Cabart model 74 oboes I have had) seem to make the D#-E trill sound "close enough for government work."
Have you checked with Richard Craig in Adelaide about what instruments he may have on the horizon? Richard's prices seem to be fairly reasonable...
With best wishes,
Peter
