Yamaha 441 Intermediate Oboe W/ Low Bb, Left F!

One of several oboes we are offering for sale.  This is a Yamaha YOB-441 step-up oboe.  All wood (grenadilla) body with a short crack in the usual place up near the trill keys which was pinned and sealed years ago--so well that the prior owner didn’t even know it was there.  Note that this is the all-wood version of the 441, not the half plastic/half wood version.  No bore damage. Silver plate about 99.9% with little if any wear at all.  Includes a bunch of keys not found on beginner oboes, including extra trills, the low Bb, and the all-important left F key.  Pads are in exceptional condition with no damage and sealing perfectly.  Unlike most of the oboes you may be looking at, this one has just been through the shop where it was adjusted, had the two bladder pads replaced, and was brought up into exceptional playing condition.  Cork grease and key oil are for local pickup only and will not be shipped, but it does include two reeds, a new ProTec microfiber cloth, and new silk swab.  All in the slim case with zippered case cover.  A great intermediate oboe for you advancing student at a couple thousand less than new!
