There are several convenient adjustment screws throughout the mechanisms of this bassoon that allow the player to fine-tune pitch adjustments without needing any special equipment or expertise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe aesthetic of this bassoon is made to distinguish itself from other Fox bassoons - it bears the dark bordeaux stain, with the French style bell ring.
