Fox 400 Wood Oboe W/ 3rd Octave Key! Serviced, Exceptional Condition, New Bag!

Description: Welcome to Ashantee Music!Matching Exceptional Students With Quality InstrumentsOne of several intermediate and professional oboes we are offering for sale. This is a Fox Model 400 all-wood, full conservatory oboe. S/n 266XX makes this a relatively new 2008 model, and it appears hardly played at all. Wood has no chips, cracks, repairs or bore damage, and the silver plate is about 99.9% with little if any wear at all. Includes a bunch of keys not found on lesser or earlier oboes, including the F-resonance key, left F key, split D/D#, banana key, extra trills, articulated C, low Bb and Bb vent, and even the third octave key! Has obviously had a recent overhaul; cork pads are in excellent condition with little wear at all and it needed very little other than the felt pads replaced, bore oiling, and very minor regulation, and two new tenon corks. Comes in the original Fox case with lots of external wear, but also includes a brand-new Kaces LUXE Series case cover giving you weather resistance, padding, lots of external zippered storage, a strap, and a ton of swag! Also includes a reed and new silk swab. MSRP $9,875, and sells new for $7,410 at the “online discount place that we do not name.” So snatch this one up in nearly-new condition just in time for a new school year, and still save more than $3,500!

(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.
