Overview
Not a bare instrument, the RFS13 arrives as a full kit: a rosewood-bodied, silver plated, full automatic oboe keyed in C. Reeds, a swab, a thumb rest and a case come in the same package.
Silver plating and the full automatic key system target a performance-level player, and the kit supplies the upkeep items an oboist needs. The listing says nothing about size, weight or tone, so judging fit is difficult.
Who it's for
A school or community-orchestra oboist will use the spare reed, swab and cloth for routine upkeep. Anyone who wants documented bore, tone or weight details should ask the seller first.
Pros and cons
- Full automatic key system
- Silver plated finish
- Two reeds included
- Swab, cloth and gloves included
- Dimensions and weight not listed
- Sound profile not described
- Redwood and rosewood wording differs
Performance notes
A double reed drives the sound, so reed condition has more influence than anything else on response. The full automatic keywork handles octave changes for the player, and the rosewood body shapes the tone.
