You are unlikely to find a perfect student instrument. The fingering for some notes can be different from bassoon to bassoon, even if they're the same model! Every orchestra has two bassoons and because of the cost of getting started, fewer and fewer students are starting.It is becoming an endangered species! Finding a relatively inexpensive student instrument is vitaly important. We think we have found one. The J Michael Bassoon is a Japanese design and has an astonishingly good tone. The tuning and intonation is good and the keywork well built and very positive. we modify some of the sping tensions to make for lighter fingering
