Fox Model 220 Renard Artist Bassoon

A Trusted Favorite - The Renard Artist Model 220

The Renard Artist Model 220 is a popular intermediate bassoon choice by teachers and students alike. The Model 220 is a “long bore” bassoon that features consistent and easy response, stability, and an even tone. It most often suits the tastes of woodwind doublers and bassoonists looking for a mellow bassoon sound. This bassoon is a great choice for students, hobbyists, and schools.
