【Excellent Condition】YAMAHA Oboe YOB-431 Semi-Automatic Excellent Condition Yamaha oboe

Reference New List Price: ¥506,000

This is a semi-automatic YAMAHA YOB-431 oboe, used by many players.
It is Yamaha's standard model and best-selling instrument, loved worldwide as an excellent condition instrument for schools or as a first personal instrument.
The YOB-432, its brother model, is depicted as the instrument used by Mizore Yoroizuka, the protagonist in Sound! Euphonium and Liz and the Blue Bird.

As shown in the photos, there are some areas of tarnish and verdigris on the silver plating, but the body is relatively clean.
During play testing, it played without issues from the lowest to the highest notes. However, there are some tears in the skin pads, and it is likely time for adjustment and repair.
If you are willing to allow time and incur additional cost, we can deliver it after adjustment for an extra fee.

The current YOB-431 has a list price of ¥506,000 (tax included) and is steadily increasing in price, so we believe this is a great deal.

Made of nickel silver with silver plating, there is some tarnish, but we believe it is a beautiful instrument.

Yamaha oboes are characterized by their reliability and accurate intonation, typical of Japanese manufacturers, and a bright, clear tone similar to Marigaux, which influenced their design.

We believe this instrument is also worth considering for those considering a new one.
Thank you for your consideration.

We are open to discussing a slight price reduction.
