Update: Well, I went ahead and did it. Despite my better judgement, somehow, I bought the used Marigaux with 'the crack to the bore' (with return op according to agreed upon terms). Took it to an oboe repair and service specialist (VERY good btw) who was UNABLE to find any actual active crack (there were some stable old repairs). It plays. It's nice. It's going back for thorough cleaning and servicing because - wow, it needed it - but for now, I actually have a very decent instrument to learn on, for a really decent price, that is playable and actually sweet sounding. (I did good, lol).

I got a good reed knife, a few canes and staple holder, a used (different brand) hard case and a carry case as part of the deal, too.

NOW all I need is - A REED! So I can actually learn to make a noise! LOL.

Recommendations for the best affordable beginner reed(s) to buy? THANKS!
