I liked it.

By Shawna from Glendale, AZ on 2/15/2011 6:20:24 PM

I found a set of these bassoons in my classroom a few years ago going unused. So I decided to learn bassoon and found that this one has been excellent for at least learning on. I found that it produces a pretty nice sound altogether. I would recommend it to anyone.

Excellent Bassoon, Not Just For Students

By Christine from Pleasant Grove, UT on 1/6/2012 6:14:57 PM

I purchased this bassoon 10 years ago when I was a senior in high school and planning to major in music. Although I ended up minoring in music and majoring in something else, I continue to play in community bands and orchestras as much as possible. This bassoon has been excellent. Not only is the red maple gorgeous to look at, but I get an incredibly beautiful tone (if I do say so myself), using the *CVX* bocals which came with the instrument. Although I'm no professional, as a hard-core hobbyist, this bassoon has been absolutely wonderful. A student instrument? I think not. This high-quality bassoon will be my partner in music for many, many years to come.
