I just bought a 1970ies Jardé oboe that seems to have great promise (very easy blowing, but still a good sounds, much less dark than my rigoutat though), but needs a complete overhaul. Many of the corks are bad, some of the keys do not open/close and it looks like at least the outside of the wood could do with some polishing.
Now I could have this done by an expert, but I kinda like doing stuff myself (I thought myself how to repair hasselblad cameras and lenses). But where to start?
Do you just go on ebay and buy a (universal?) set of corks, springs, screws, etc?
How about the wood itself?
Are there any manuals out there that I could use?
thanks a lot!
