Description
The Howarth S40C Automatic 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. The octaves on S40C German system oboe are automatic.
An ideal upgrade from our student models, the S40C will take players to advanced student level.
