Linton 7K Advanced Bassoon! Serviced, Two Bocals

 
One of several bassoons we are offering for sale.  This is a Linton Model 7K—an advanced student model with a high D and lots of rollers and keys not featured on the beginner 2K and lower 5K models, and perfect for introducing your students to some of the fingering options found on professional bassoons.  The prior owner removed the whisper key lock on this one (and on several other Lintons we purchased from them) but the parts can be ordered from Fox and assembled by your local shop if you want your student to use it.  The bassoon is in very good condition:  no chips, cracks, or repairs to the crack-resistant ABS body, plating about 95% with a little wear mostly on the thumb key and a few posts.  Leather pads in very good condition, and just back from the shop in April 2024 where it had a couple replaced, one new tenon cork, and was serviced and brought up into excellent playing condition.  All of our palm rests were a little too big, but it does includes two bocals (a Linton V2 and a Linton *1), strap, and bocal snake.  Comes in a very nice case with just a trace of the prior owner’s markings still visible on the exterior.  A great US-made bassoon for your school’s band program, or a practice bassoon to keep at home!
