Intermediate oboe for advancing students up to music college level. Available in Grenadilla, Mopane or Synthetic body.
The Howarth S40C is a graduate model instrument designed for intermediate to advanced level players.
Lighter in weight than our professional model oboes, the keywork on the S40C has many of the same features as a professional level instrument, with a greater variety of fingerings and trills compared to the S20C.
Howarth S40C comes in 5 different body types to suit different players and conditions:
- Standard model in the same traditional Grenadilla wood as our professional model oboes.
- The VT (Velvet Tone) model, lined from the top of the instrument to the first finger hole, to protect the top joint from cracking.
- NEW Mopane hardwood model with VT lining
- Synthetic top joint model makes this instrument crack proof while maintaining a full and rich tone.
- Fully synthetic body model for crack free easy maintenance, while maintaining a full and rich tone.
An ideal upgrade from our student models, the S40C will take players to advanced student level.
All new instruments come with a minimum 24 month warranty on repairs and we will take care of all servicing and cleaning within the first 12 months upon request. All second hand instruments come with a 6 month guarantee from the date of purchase.
