Yamaha has been manufacturing musical instruments since the 1880's. While non-musicians know them as a motorsports company, Yamaha actually started out as a musical instrument manufacturer and the three interlocking tuning forks in their logo shows it. A leader in the industry, Yamaha combines old world techniques with new advancements to produce what many consider to be some of the finest instruments in the world.
Student oboes are made of plastic, ABS resin, or some other composite material and have nickel-silver keys with nickel or silver-plating. Professional oboes are typically wooden with silver-plated or solid silver keys.
ABS Resin is a strong composite material ideal for reproducing the tonal qualities of more expensive wooden oboes while offering durability and ease of maintenance to student players.
Silver-plating on keys is considered preferable to nickel because the silver holds up better over time and looks shinier. Solid silver keys found on more expensive oboes are even better because with proper care, they will never lose their luster.
