For sale, an immaculate Fox 680 bassoon. These bassoons are extremely rare second hand. This particular instrument has only been played half a dozen times by its owner, who bought it new in 2017.

Fox have been improving their instruments over the years, and this is the best model we have ever tried. It exhibits a large dynamic range, sweet tone and great flexibility.

Here is what Fox have to say:

A “hybrid” bore bassoon, the Fox Model 680 is designed for versatility. Created to combine the power and depth of “thick wall” bassoons with the singing, flexible, and expressive tonal characteristics of the original Fox bassoons, the Model 680 is a large instrument with a rich, powerful bass, and a singing tenor register.
