Some say Loree, those in Britain might prefer a Howarth.

Marigaux, Rigoutat, Fox, etc. they all work as well as their prices. Hehe.
Fox produces a lower price ranged Renard for students and so do Loree with their Cabart.

I don't trust mass produced oboes from companies that make and sell virtually any instrument (Buffet- good clarinets, Selmer- good saxophones, and credits for some other instruments, but never the oboe, etc.) except Yamaha which works quite incredibly well when compared to the other top line brands.

Theres is no one ultimately best instrument and at long last you will all come down to your own playing skills and preferences. Good luck!

A good teacher is most important. Although i have started playing the oboe myself without a teacher for almost 2 years, my current tutors have given me much advice that i could've gone through without pain long ago, not to mention the bad habits.

G. Hinke is a must. Barret is also Important. Ferling, Otto Langey, YES.
Rubank is well......a bit out of everything above. These are all study books though. Not really something to get you started. If you can't find a good teacher to start you off THEN get more advice from anyone of us here. Haha. Good luck!
