Hello --
As I understand it, your question was in regard to where you might take the oboe for emergency repair.
You give Pepperell, MA, as your approximate location.
Charles Double Reed, one of the nation's largest and best double reed suppliers, is in North Conway, New Hampshire -- not terribly far from you.
65 Seavey Street
PO Box 2120
North Conway
New Hampshire 03860

It would seem to me that Boston is closer to you, but you might give Brian Charles or his staff a call, and see if there is someone in Boston that they would recommend.
You might also try contacting Robert Howe in Wilbraham, MA.

Robert is an M.D., a very serious oboist, and a goodfella -- I own one of his old oboes (his "second favorite" Covey, at that time).
Best wishes,
Susan from Ohio
