Cool Instruments!
Yes, I have no life and name pretty looking instruments that I'll NEVER own!

Pierre
Pierre's the first instrument I ever named.  I found him on EBay and thought he was the best looking oboe in the world.  He has all the extra trill keys and resonance keys and everything, but he was too expensive.
Paul
I thought Pierre was the sexiest oboe in the world until I met Paul (named after the bus driver in England).  He has all the extra keys and things like Pierre, but they're all GOLD-PLATED!  Very sexy indeed.
Yeah, I know the name is unoriginal considering it's a Loree oboe, but YOU try naming every pretty oboe YOU see.  It's not that easy.  Anyway, I don't really have all the facts about Lori anymore, but I think it's the one with the 3rd octave key.  And that device thing that allows you to play notes that require the 2nd octave key WITHOUT pressing the key.  Something along those lines...
Lori
Selmer Signature Series
It would be very biased and wrong of me to only put oboes on this page, so here's a sexy clarinet.  It's got a raised C/G hole, supposedly has amazing sound and control, and costs a whole lot of money!  Yeah, and there's that extra key thingy...I think it's a trill key...or something.  And it's REMOVABLE!  (Also recommended: Buffet R13)
In another attempt to prove my non-biased-ness, here's Xavier (picture "borrowed" from Rachel's new site-thing...thanks Rachel).  I really know nothing about saxophones, but he's so pretty!
