This hand-selected Moosmann 447E Orchestra Model bassoon brings a rich, powerful voice to any performance. Used primarily in wind ensemble settings, this pre-owned instrument produces a thick, slightly bold tone that projects easily from deep low notes to bright high registers, with a pitch balance the seller describes as well controlled throughout its range.

A cleaning swab and reed case are included, and a synthetic Legere reed can be added upon request.
Shipping is offered in one of two ways: via Sagawa Express with high-value insurance coverage (up to one million yen, insurance cost covered by the seller, shipping fee borne by the buyer), or as air cargo picked up at the airport, limited to direct flights departing from Kagoshima Airport.
