I started playing in 6th grade with a 25 year old Selmer, that was decently maintained. After one year, my band director saw the potential and took money out of the budget to purchase a new Yamaha 441. It was sitting right on my chair the first day back to school 7th grade.
Biggest difference for me was the addition of the left F key which the Selmer did not have. There were some extra keys too on the Yamaha but I didn't have the repertoire yet to require me to use those keys.
If your current oboe is missing important keys like left F, I would upgrade as soon as possible. Other wise if it is in good condition and playing well, I might wait a few years before you upgrade. A teacher's advice would be best.
