Description
Up for auction is a Fox Renard Model 220 Wooden Bassoon with all new pads and a new protec case! This instrument has just been overhauled with new pads and the keywork is polished and shiny. The instrument plays extremely well, and has a great look to it. This high quality Wooden bassoon was made in the USA by Fox, one of the premier bassoon makers in the world. This instrument includes standard keywork plus High D and High E keywork for full range. The Model 220 is a long-bore instrument that has great projection and tone. We have just finished overhauling this instrument. We ended up replacing all the pads on this bassoon, and now it plays cleanly and evenly up and down. This is a great high end pre-professional bassoon, and because of the high quality fox design, you will find that it will play better than most other brands, and the 220 is one of the best pre-professional models they offer. The Tenon connectors are wax thread wrappings for added strength and durability on the bass joint, and cork on the wing for better response. Cosmetically, this instrument is in Excellent condition, and it was very well taken care of. For a used instrument, there isn't a whole lot of wear. Some knicks and dings are present on each piece of the instrument. The photos speak for themselves though. A lot of work was put into this horn to bring it back into playing condition. The metal plating has polished up very well, but has a few scratches here or there. The wood of the instrument is in excellent shape, with no observed cracks on the instrument. This instrument now plays great, and looks good too. The case is a new Protec case and will protect the instrument well. Also included is a silk swab, seat strap, hand crutch, and reed. Please ask any questions about this instrument, we are happy to help. A CVX Bocal size 3 is included with this instrument in very good condition as well. Why Buy From Us?
We actually fix the instruments we sell! Unlike many sellers on eBay who claim not to know anything about the instruments they are selling, we are woodwind specialists with decades of combined experience. We care about how all our instruments sound and play, and our feedback record reflects that. We professionally adjust, overhaul, and clean up all instruments that we sell to insure you the highest quality musical instruments available on eBay. This process takes hours for each individual horn and would normally cost several hundred dollars at your local music shop. This 10+ point process means replacing worn and damaged pads, adjusting the position of leaky pads to seal properly, adjusting and replacing damaged springs, making sure the instrument is regulated to play all alternate fingerings, replacing loose cork connectors, instrument cleaning, oiling, playtesting, and steralizing the instrument.
You can be assured that when you receive the instrument it will be in top playing condition. We are so confident that you will not only enjoy, but love your new instrument that we offer a 14-day no questions asked money back guarantee on all our instruments. If you are not satisfied in any way with your purchase, return the instrument for a full refund minus shipping.
