You can't go wrong with the howarth.

I would have got that model if money permitted. You can easily do diplomas on it etc.

When I read the first post, i was going to say check for features. Some features are almost essential, and some not so much. For instance, a third octave key is a great benefit, a Left F key pretty much essential. And a venting forked f. And semi auto octaves.

The three brands you mentioned are all reputable.. so then it is down to the condition of pads (etc) in a second hand instrument, and the features. As depending on the age of the instrument, and the market it was aimed at, can effect what key work it has.

:)
Enjoy fiddling with your oboe!
