Do you also oil the lower joint?

Thanks Jason - agree with keeping simple.

Can you tell me the name of the solvent you use?

Obviously.

Where can I buy the tools?

Wa~Wa😮

Thank you ❤

Thank you for your video!🙏

This just happened to me during an audition today 💀💀

What do you use on the black plastic to make it shine?

Clean and polish keys

Cork grease.... 2xs a day on any new instrument

It effs up the airflow of the air molecules at the base of the staple which is no longer a continuous bore after the reed is pulled out for all of the wrong reasons. Thousands of music teachers all over the United States need to learn this fundamental lesson. An Oboe teacher should be required for anyone taking up the instrument of the Oboe, as a student. Perpetual instability when the oboe reed is not seated properly.

Thank you very much! Why not using a swab instead of a feather which might loose small parts?

Thank you very much I am a new player so this helped!

Very helpful, thank you!!!

Very super helpful. Thank you!!!

is any polishing cloth alright to use? if not what kinds would you recommend?

I'm an adult beginner after playing in junior hs. This is the best of 4 videos I have watched on the subject

Thank you so much excellent

Thanks Jared, it´s the half truth, for the Intonation is important ,first the way of blowing , then the material , you can change the length of the reed or width of the bacon, in every case check it out before the rehearsal... and than learn to listen, to tune your instrument , maybe you can have a look here ruclips.net/video/YgtyccZwoJk/видео.html

You can buy a small, cheap ultrasonic cleaner from Harbor Freight to clean the vents.

Couldn't you use a low wattage soldering iron?

I've watched a BUNCH of these videos, wanting to pass good information along to my students. You are the ONLY one that I've seen who reminds oboists to look for knots and tangles before swabbing! THANK YOU!

How do you clean the vents?

Such an informative seminar! Thank you for sharing all your knowledge. And you are a fantastic speaker!

Like seeing the classic Nielsen duck in the background!

Mass-produced machine made oboe reeds can be horrible primarily because they want to mass produce them, so the cane they use is most likely very fresh or new cane prone to warpage and constant change. That would make the aperture wider or smaller from reed to reed. Then there must be a quality control inspection to grade them for soft medium or hard. 20% of them I would judge are viable for a student, and then the teacher to adjust to the student and the oboe. The oboe is more expensive to pursue, than the kazoo. But the kazoo never had the quality of beauty. Learning the oboe is an investment in education and perseverance for any young person with ability and a desire to play an instrument that is revered, for centuries before, and centuries into the future as long as we love orchestral type music, and more.

Nice playing on the bass oboe dude..... at 2:45

Do you do replating services? If you do, do you have a video for it? thank you so much.

Hey Jason Check out dental wax knives or Le Cron Carvers. They work like an absolute charm for this

Pure Lanolin ( not cream) works really well as a cork grease. Recommended by Peter Hurd. it can be a bit sticky, but a very tiny amount works well, and one of the beauties of it, is that it wipes off clean.

What oboe adjustment books would you recommend?

I thought that oboe is not that popular in USA, Good to know its getting better and better everyday! I wish I could be with u right now

Poor Catherine 😫

Ouch!

My oboe teachers have always taught that intonation on the oboe is controlled by embouchure and has to be constantly adjusted, hence the need of developing a good ear hear when you’re not in tune with everyone else. We quite literally would spend entire lessons with a tuner playing scales slowly and listening and adjusting accordingly.

Clarinet player just swabbing my new oboe for the first time "Hmm....maybe if I pull a little harder the silk swab will......oh crud....no no no no no....." thankfully I was able to take it apart and pull it back the other way. I'm going to get one of those swabs as I hate disassembling to clean since I swab about every 10 minutes during practice. Thanks!

What does this annual maintenance cost roughly? Oboes are such high maintenance instruments and everything is so expensive.

this helped me so much!

Thank you for the video, very easy task. Now my first octave vent stays true (doesn't drop to lower octave). I'd be most appreciative if you can also make a video or make a blog post on the procedure for cleaning those octave vents. Cheers!

Hi Todd, great tip for my players over here in Germany. waiting for more of those Franz

I'm just wanting to say, Thanks for the information you have put out here for people like myself. I love the sound this instrument puts out. I was lucky to get started by someone getting ready to throw one in the trash, thank God I knew what it was. Unfortunately I smoke, by the way I am 57, been smoking awhile. I tried, just don't have the wind. Again with thanks to all the tips on utube, I have been able to take it apart and save money cleaning and now in the adjustment phase. Hopefully when I think I have it completed, just maybe I can do better trying to play. If not, ..... Who knows

I'm going to give it a shot

The before pic looks like my school oboe currently. Can't wait to get it cleaned this summer!!!

You can get bees wax from an art supply store if that's your preferance.
