I suspect that the cracking is just luck of the draw...it happens to almost every makers instruments now and then..I am sure that whoever has the cracked Hiniker took every care but still the top joint went and cracked...it's a nuisance but it happens...an expensive nuisance
I too have heard wonderful things about Tom Hinikers Oboes and Cor Anglais...his bocals are legendary it seems by all reports...The only real problem I detect with using these individual makers is the huge waiting list...several years for a Laubin and about the same for Hiniker who I believe closed his list for the time being...I appreciate that they are considered excellent makers which is wonderful but I do wonder at the time waiting for them to start making or to even get on the waiting list...then only to find that the instrument is not quite what one had hoped for and or worse the thing cracks whilst being blown in...personally I would be very dissapointed if the latter happened...
How do they compare pricewise with say a Loree Royal, are they more expensive or on a par with most of the major makers?
