Up for auction is a Fox Model III (which is a Model IV with Metal Banding) in nice condition!  This high quality resonite bassoon is made in the USA by Fox, one of the premier bassoon makers in the world.  This instrument has standard keywork including a high D key.  The pads are in great condition because overall – they were replaced in the last two years, We tuned up the instrument and It plays cleanly and evenly up and down.  This is a great starter bassoon, and because of the high quality fox design, you will find that it will play better than many lesser quality wooden ones.  One standard bocal is included with the instrument.  From a cosmetic perspective, Most of the plastic body has scratching and small dings all around the instrument from use over they years.  The plating is in nice condition, but has light spotty wear on many of the keys, especially where the fingers make contact with the metal as well as in other locations. Overall though, it has held up well and is extremely clean and shiny throughout most of the instrument.   That said, the photos speak for themselves.  This instrument plays great, and looks great.  The case is a brand new protec case.  Also included is a silk swab, seat strap, hand crutch, and reed.  Please ask any questions about this instrument, we are happy to help.  The photos speak for themselves. This instrument plays great, and looks great. The case is a Brand new Protec case. Also included is a silk swab, seat strap, hand crutch, and reed. Please ask any questions about this instrument, we are happy to help.
