 Re: Help identifying which model is my oboe

There is the Sawicki book which explains the adjustments using a Loree oboe as the example - here's a PDF of it: https://kupdf.net/download/a-method-for-adjusting-the-oboe-sawicki_59897113dc0d60490d300d1c_pdf

I don't particularly care for the way he labels the main action fingerplates using note names (F# key, E key, D key, etc.) as that needs context instead of the far more universal labelling LH1, LH2, LH3, RH1, RH2, RH3 which applies across all woodwind instruments, even those with no keys at all.

As far as feeler gauges go, I use the silver Rizla cigarette papers which are half the thickness of the blue Rizlas most people use. Some use thin mylar sheet or pieces of 120 minute cassette tape as a feeler gauge.
