Instruments

Laubin oboeWhat exactly sets Läubin instruments apart from those of the more widely-known brands? While every other manufacturer has moved to an automated process, using computerized milling machines and standardized parts, Läubin still does everything essentially by hand, using only belt-driven lathes, drills, and hand-tools. The instruments are made one at a time, and the parts are handmade and custom fit. This results in an extremely high level of quality and precision. In addition, the wood has been thoroughly aged, and the bore, undercutting, and tone-hole placement have been perfected over generations. Finally, each instrument is carefully inspected and play-tested by Paul and David, both accomplished oboists.
