I bought this oboe used probably around 9 years ago from my city's local music store. Since it was purchased so long ago, I no longer have any information about it, if I ever did in the first place. I'm looking for help identifying the model and/or approximate age of this instrument. At the time of purchase, I'm positive that we were told it was a Buffet and it did come in a Buffet case, but there is no Buffet logo anywhere on the instrument itself. However, my current oboe teacher confirmed that it's a Buffet when he looked at it recently. Below the serial number, there's also a stamp that says it's "Made in Germany". I can't seem to attach photos or files, but the serial number is 24187

Made in Germany = student model. Interestingly, some models were wooden.
Buffet, like most other manufacturers, doesn't have a list of serial numbers for their non-pro instruments online. I did some quick online searches to see if I could get a guesstimate on that serial number, but I didn't find anything. You might want to do some ebay searches to see if you can get a date.
Gotta run!
