5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect, wish I had this years ago.
Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2018
Exactly what I needed. I have a traditional heavy wood case with leather outer cover that weighs more than twice the bassoon. My husband recently got a case like this for his cello and I was envious prompting me to investigate similar options for the bassoon. Wish I had this years ago. I have a Fox bassoon and it fits snugly and safely inside. Plenty of space and pockets for reeds, cleaning supplies and other stuff. Bocal pocket holds 2 securely inside the main pouch. Easy to get bassoon in and out. I actually use the case to hold the bassoon as I put it together - it stands nicely in it on the church pew where I play each Sunday. Well constructed, good zippers. I usually carry over my shoulder but the handle works fine, too. Highly recommend. Wish I had this during school when I was lugging it around with 3 other instruments at the same time.

Esta hecho de un material de calidad y es lo suficientemente solido. Sus correas lo vuelven más práctico para transportarlo, pese al peso que es igual que mi case solido.
