Hello and Welcome to

Covey & Ramsay,

oboe makers! 

Our shop is located 2 hours north of Atlanta, in Blairsville, GA. 

Shop Hours 2009:

 We are usually in the shop M-F from about 10:00 a.m. to about 6:00 p.m.  If we're back in the oboe machine room, we can't get to the phone, so please try again later.  All visits are by appointment only.  If you'd like to visit, please call us first and we will arrange for a mutually convenient time.

A full service shop for the professional oboist, we hand make our own professional Covey Oboe. We carry reeds, oboe cane, tube cane, reed-making tools, knives, mandrels, staples (tubes), swabs, reed-making kits, oboe music, and much more (please see the Catalog Index or Quick Index links above for details!) Please browse our web-site to find all of the above!

We are currently finishing and delivering new Covey oboes, both Grenadilla wood and Rosewood, and have more in the "pipeline" for the rest of the year!  If you are interested in trying a new Covey, please call and make arrangements!

For those of our friends who remember Paul and his Covey oboes from his Baltimore days, he moved to Atlanta in October, 1996.  There we had a small but wonderful shop on Bennett Street, for 10+ years, nestled in between the art galleries, rug dealers, antique shops and restaurants... but now Covey & Ramsay is making Covey oboes in Blairsville, 1 block from the central town square.  From our windows, we see the lovely historic courthouse, with an old-fashioned traffic circle around it.  There are festivals here all Fall: Blue Grass Festival, Sorghum Festival (sorghum is a local cane syrup which is very delicious!), there's a Country Fair, the Campbell Folk Arts School has a festival near here, etc.  We're walking distance from most of the downtown area, and we can promise you about the best Reuben sandwich we're ever had only one block away...  But most importantly, this is a quiet area where we can focus on our work....

Our primary focus is:

Oboe Making

Our goal and commitment is to make and deliver to our potential Covey oboists the most beautiful oboe possible. 

We also offer:

Accessories

We aim to find and provide the highest quality accessories available, at reasonable costs.

Support for our clients

Whether that means first-rate repair, the best supplies and accessories, or fine-tuning your oboe...(the list is as varied as our clients)...our commitment is to offer you our best support!

Please take a moment to browse around our web site.

Note: From any point in the site, you can get back to the Main Catalog Index by clicking on the Oboe on the top of the page...and, of course, clicking on the "D.C." at the bottom of the page takes you to the top of the current page...

As always... Our goal is to serve your musical needs. If you need something not mentioned on our site, we still may have it or know where to find it. Please inquire.

In Loving Memory Of
