Fox 660 #23180

This 660 is a thick-wall bassoon with larger tone holes than its thin-wall counterparts. It was made in 1997 and kept in great condition. It was owned by a university bassoon performance major. Life changes have led to it being available for purchase. It has great resonance and a warm sound, with incredible projection and flexibility. It is the ideal instrument for principal players. Personally cleaned, oiled, adjusted, and play-tested by Brian Charles in our Kingston workshop, this bassoon is fully prepared for performance. It will be play-tested and carefully adjusted once more just prior to shipment for trial, ensuring it arrives in optimal condition. “My Model 660 bassoon just spoke to me. There is a certain sparkle in the way it blows when I play it. It is responsive, has a beautiful tone, and works well in many different genres from playing in a symphony to playing really loud amplified jazz/rock fusion. The tone stays intact and the warmth of the instrument always prevails.” – Fox Artist Paul Hanson Freelance Electric and Acoustic Contemporary Jazz Bassoonist
