Fox 450 Advanced Conservatory Oboe! Partial Overhaul, New KACES Bag, Nice!

Description: Welcome to Ashantee Music!Matching Exceptional Students With Quality Instruments One of several semi-professional oboes we are offering for sale. This is a Fox 450, s/n 15XXX, 1998. It is in excellent condition: grenadilla lower and bell for exceptional tone and warmth, with a crack-resistance upper for peace of mind and stability. No chips, cracks, repairs or bore damage. Silver plate about 99.5% with little if any wear at all. Full-conservatory keywork including the left F, split D/D# trill, other extra trills, banana key, articulated C#, F-resonance, and low Bb. While we usually overhaul all our oboes, the upper on this one was actually in such good condition that we did just replaced the tenon cork and made a few minor adjustments to get it to seal perfectly with no leaks. (It actually tests a flat “0” on the leak detector.) The lower joint and bell were completely disassembled, cleaned, bore oiled, hand-polished, and repadded entirely in Ferree’s premium cork pads, including the two largest pads. Plays delightfully right out of the box on pickup. May need very minor adjustments on delivery depending on how many bumps the FedEx guy hits. Includes a silk swab, the Fox cork grease container, and reed. Original hard case with some external wear, and best of all—a brand new, $79 Kaces LUXE series weather-resistant padded cover with strap, lots of zippered storage compartments, and bunches of swag! MSRP $9,500, usually sells brand new for about $7,200, so save more than $4,000, and snatch up one of the best near-professional oboes you can get serviced by one of the best oboe specialists in the States!

Photographs are considered a binding part of an item description.Shipping: Items are shipped after receipt and clearance of your payment. We try to ship far ahead of the handling time listed in the auction.

Unfortunately, due to rampant abuse of eBay's automated returns, and since PayPal no longer refunds sales fees, we have had to revise our return policy. (1) If you are not satisfied with your purchase, please contact us PRIOR to initiating a return via eBay and allow us to address your concerns. Many items such as clarinets and oboes come out of adjustment during the shipping process, and can be easily tweaked by your local technician. We are happy to talk you through this process.

If on receipt we are able to verify the item to be significantly different than described, we will additionally refund original shipping, PayPal fees, and your return shipping to maximum of $30.00.
