The Laubin doesn't have a plastic sleeve, and could be blown out.
I recently bought a used oboe from MMI, and was not pleased with the condition the instrument came in. It was missing the horseshoe bracket on the 2nd joint, and they refused to pay for a replacement saying it's fine as is (which is true, but it's safer to put one on to prevent bending the rod, and they should have been willing to pay for it.) Also, some pads on the instrument are not mounted perfectly but rather at an angle which causes some leakage. MMI should have caught these mistakes and fixed them before selling a used instrument.
