I have a thumb rest with a ring and was using a clarinet thumb cushion because there were none for oboe at my local music store. I was so excited to see people made things like this and I am glad I bought it!

Oboe thumb rest
Very well made but doesn't fit my instrument very well (Buffet Crampon Paris, actually made in Austria). Recess not deep enough and had to carve 2 corners off to enable me to engage hook of my neck strap.
Dear Eric,
It is a good job you are creative enough to make this work for you! Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, hopefully other players potentially in the same position will take inspiration and make it work for them too.
Happy comfortable oboe-ing!

The reeds are great but the delay in receiving them due to customs demand for payment meant I did not receive the reeds for my concert despite paying extra for faster shipping
Although very pleased with the quality of your reed, I was not happy at having to pay 13 euros in customs charges to my local post office. Maybe you can find a way around this.
