The Fox 201 is perhaps the most popular Fox bassoon of all time. It is a thin-wall, short bore instrument, patterned after the 7000-series Heckels. They are responsive and easy to apply, but have a wonderfully colorful sound.

About This Instrument

This 201 is a rare instrument! It commemorates the 25th anniversary of Fox and has a unique logo design showing the dates 1952-1977 on the bell. This is one of the most responsive and Heckel-like Fox 201's we've come across, and especially for the age, this bassoon plays exceptionally well. It also has a little bit of extra key work, featuring a full set of right thumb rollers, offset high E and Eb, RH Eb trill with offset C# trill, and mechanical Ab-Bb trill mechanism with no clutch. If you're looking for an upgrade from your Renard or other student instrument at a great value, look no further.

This bassoon comes with our 1-year used instrument warranty.
