it's the best intermediate oboe

Review Date: June 18, 2008

Reviewer: p., davis ca

from various various sources i decided to by the fox 330 oboe, i was using a fox 333 in jr. high, but the high school didn't have a serious intermediate oboe.

it's probably the best oboe in it's price range, (you could buy a yamaha for a cheaper price, but it doesn't sound nearly as nice, or you can buy a Loree for 6000+ but thats just too much money) The banana C (alternate c)really helps in some situations, and the left hand F too (the old 333's don't have those, but the newer ones do)

Obviously the plastic resin oboe won't have as rich of a sound as the wood ones, but it's also a lot less hassle, as wood ones will crack, and you need to oil it every 4-6 month.

the oboe case that came with it is obviously light, but i find it pretty useful for traveling, especially with the shoulder straps. But the case shouldn't matter, if you really want one that has better protection just go buy a solid case for around 150-200 dollars.

Great oboe...BUT

This oboe seems nice enough for my middle school child, however I am very unhappy about the quality of the case Fox provided. The case is already - in ONE WEEK - starting to open up at the corner seams. We were using the school's older oboe prior to this recent purchase and that oboe case has the same problem! Poor design and now I've just spent $90 to cover this new case I thought would be worth covering and saving.
