I bought a lovely re-conditioned Renard Artist 240D bassoon from you. I’m currently practising and thought that i should let you know how much I LOVE this instrument! I am the envy of all the bassoonists at school because of the gorgeous sound quality of the low and high notes. It also looks stunningly beautiful. I can’t believe how lucky I am that you had this instrument when I needed a bassoon. thank you again for all your kind help.

At the 2024 ADRS Conference, I had the chance to try a Fox 601D and was very impressed with the tone and response. Very easy to play. I would recommend this bassoon.

The bassoon has been going great. Realising how different it was to the previous one, not just in terms of tone, but intonation and other things, was really eye opening. I love it!
