Ok, that helps.
My oboe is new (sort of - I'll explain that) and so it may still be adjusting itself somewhat. I bought it from the local music shop where they mainly rent instruments to students and do repairs. The new oboe (Buffet) had been sitting there for 7 years in the case because no one had ever come in to buy an oboe and the store didn't want to rent it out to students because it was too expensive an instrument. So, now I have a new, older oboe.
When you take your oboe in once a year, what do they do to it exactly? Clean it or what? And do you do anything to your oboe on your own to keep it cleaned or oiled? I swab mine out after practicing but other than that, is there anything else that I should be doing to it?
thanks.
Lucy
