YFG-812C

The YFG-812 has a heavier-4-millimeter thick body wall, resulting in a darker tone that blends well with the modern orchestra.

The key systems on these instruments are hand-assembled by experienced craftsmen, with emphasis on superior quality and playability. A balancer and Bb key guard are standard, and a roller system and oversized left-hand thumb key facilitate performace of difficult passages. The left-hand little finger key and right-hand thumb and little finger keys have been located in the most natural, comfortable positions for significantly enhanced playability, allowing the performer to focus the music not the instrument.

Each model is available with either traditional or compact type body styles. Compact type bassooons have a differenr configuration which permits the use of a smaller case. When ordering a compact system bassoon, add 'C' to the model number.
