I was looking for a second hand oboe and ı found this ı have communicated with the seller and he told me he doesn't know the instrument's serial number or the model he told me he got this instrument as a trade and he is not an oboe player so ıdk anything about the instrument's tone, health or etc. even the model he is selling it for 1.000 euro ı know marigaux is one of the top oboe brand but ı couldn't trust him is it worth to pay and can you identify the instrument
Can you identify this instrument

Yes, SML is a high-end double-reed manufacturer. I'm pretty sure they switched to using just "Marigaux" sometime in the 2000s, so this horn is earlier than that.
My oboe knowledge hovers at only 1%, so I really can't help much more. I'll move this thread to a bit better area, tho.

As I said, my oboe knowledge hovers at only 1%. You might want to try the International Double Reed Society forum at https://www.idrs.org/forums.
