Covey Oboe |
Our most current model is a continuation of our line of our professional oboes started by Paul Covey in 1979, and continued most recently by Ginger Ramsay. It features the beautiful traditional sound of the Covey Oboe with all the advances in acoustics that our ongoing work has revealed, including new bore and bell designs. Each oboe has, of course, full conservatory double-thick silver-plated mechanism, including left F, 3rd octave key, F and bell resonances, and the ‘Philly’ high D facilitator. The top joint has all tone-holes inserted with delrin to help protect against cracking and improve suction. The bottom joint can also be ordered inserted. Plastic top joints are also now available, either as the top joint of your Covey Oboe or as an additional top joint for when conditions would place your wooden top joint at risk. |
