- Onks Woodwind was honored to speak at the Southern Oboe Intensive oboe camp on July 11, 2019. There were approximately 44 camp participants this year of all skill levels, with organizer Julie Grasso owner of Double or Nothing Double Reeds. The camps powerhouse faculty includes Jim Sullivan of the Alabama Symphony, Russ DeLuna of the San Fransisco Symphony and Phil Ross of the St. Louis Symphony!
Jason presented this maintenance clinic which included many ideas and thoughts on how the participants can prevent damage to their oboes which will keep them out of the shop for longer periods of time. They also discussed when it is appropriate to visit the repair shop!
After the clinic and lunch, Nick and Jason set down and got to work. Many of the participants and faculty brought their oboes by so the Onks Team could make adjustments. Jason and Nick were exhausted by the end of the day, but had an amazing time serving the camp participants!

Pure Lanolin ( not cream) works really well as a cork grease. Recommended by Peter Hurd. it can be a bit sticky, but a very tiny amount works well, and one of the beauties of it, is that it wipes off clean.
I haven't tried it but should be OK. We do not want "sticky" on our oboes, so be very conservative when applying. This would apply to all cork greases. Thanks Geoffrey!
I thought that oboe is not that popular in USA, Good to know its getting better and better everyday! I wish I could be with u right now
Keep up the hard work and enjoy playing the oboe! Brand recognition is secondary to simply enjoying the oboe. Many blessings, Jason Onks
What oboe adjustment books would you recommend?
I am only familiar with the Sawicki adjustment book because that's what I started with years ago. There are several others available and I'm sure they cover the basics also. I'll also recommend that you read this article: www.onksws.com/2013/03/17/oboe-adjustment-or-cleaning/ There is a big difference between adjusting and maintenance. I would recommend to all oboists that are going to use oboe as a career, that they know how to adjust. But the maintenance side is where they need to develop a relationship with a professional repairer. There are many things that turning a screw will not help. I hope this is helpful! -Jason
