I don't recommend buying something that nobody here has heard of...and so far I don't see anyone chiming in about their experience with the Tempest. Unfortunately, oboe is one of those instruments that has to meet some pretty high standards just to be playable. I see videos online of plastic trumpets that trumpet players don't think are that bad--but you just have three valves and a tuning slide. Oboes with their narrow bore and still narrower reed openings have very little air going through them, and the smallest leak can ruin your day....
