Classic Fox Sayen Oboe Model 880 (grenadilla) System [ThARKa7p]

Classic Fox Sayen Oboe Model 880 (grenadilla) System [ThARKa7p]

Designed to produce the richest and darkest sound of all Fox oboes, while still offering exceptional response and intonation, the Sayen Model 880 has a larger body than traditional oboes. Trimmed in gold with fine silver keys and the most select hand-finished grenadilla wood, this oboe exemplifies the beauty and tradition of American craftsmanship.
