Buffet Crampon's elegant contra bassoon is designed with 10 year old Alpine Maple bodies, a Luracast lining in the wing and boot joint, silver plated keys, a high E key, and two hand-hammered silver plated bocals.
Schreiber’s contrabassoons enrich the entire bassoon section in any orchestra. Its very even response and ergonomic keywork make the transition from bassoon to contrabassoon easy, even during a performance. Intonation is also helped by the tuning slide.
