Corey, if you are just starting out, I'd sure suggest your getting a "decent" playable plastic oboe, rather than a much more expensive USED wood, and would avoid buying and "BREAKING IN" a NEW wood oboe, where the possibility of top joint cracking is very high. The exception to this would be a plastic [resonite etc] upper joint, or a used Linton wood which has the plastic insert which, in my experience, avoids cracking very well. I have a copy of L's patent, its expired, so it may be copied now, it should be mentioned in ads. Good luck, its a different world from clarinets! Don
Thanx, Mark, Don
