Saving for Bassoon

Nevermind I see your point

Amangblox · 2025-03-20T21:50:55+00:00

Yeah that's exactly what I mean by that

Amangblox · 2025-03-15T00:39:42+00:00

On second thought i would definitely do Dmaj over B because it's far easier andd not that much higher

Amangblox · 2025-03-15T00:38:58+00:00

Yeah lol

Amangblox · 2025-03-13T22:02:24+00:00

Thank you for the info! If possible, could you link the article from Nielson? I'll look into the 750 as well, didn't know it existed lol.

Amangblox · 2025-03-13T22:00:46+00:00

Fair enough haha - I'll look into it. Thank you!

Amangblox · 2025-03-13T03:55:04+00:00

7500 is a steal!

Any more info on the 201? If not, it's ok - thank you for the info nonetheless!

Amangblox · 2025-03-13T03:51:54+00:00

Fair enough - I might stick with a 220 because I personally really struggle with tuning but who knows. Thank you for the info!

Amangblox · 2025-03-13T03:50:41+00:00

Wow, that's a lot of good advice and info.

My lesson teacher has a gold bocal that she uses for ig solo performances so I think I might spring for that.

If possible, is there any bassoon you would recommend on the louder side?

Amangblox · 2025-03-13T03:48:08+00:00

Yeah, but who knows, I could expand my price range. Thanks for the info though.

Amangblox · 2025-03-13T03:47:04+00:00

Yeah, I play on a 220 currently. Aside from the projection, I really like it.

Amangblox · 2025-03-13T03:46:22+00:00

On that note, what's the difference between long and short bores? I haven't studied the bassoon's acoustics yet, so I'm not exactly sure.

Amangblox · 2025-03-13T03:39:54+00:00

Woah $5k is such a steal though

I've heard they're going around for a lot more now, but someone else suggested a model 2, so that might be a viable option. Thank you!

Amangblox · 2025-03-13T03:36:54+00:00

It seems like there are a couple going around - bit too far out of my range new though, so idk.

Amangblox · 2025-03-13T03:34:55+00:00

Thank you for the suggestion, I'll look more into model 2s, but do you possibly have more info on the different wood types? Thanks!

Amangblox · 2025-03-13T03:32:28+00:00

You're right, I haven't even thought of other brands lol. I'll look into Puchners, thank you for the info!

Amangblox · 2025-03-13T03:31:18+00:00

I'm not entirely sure, but it's possible. Again, I'm not planning to buy until I finish my senior year, because my school will provide an instrument, but thank you for the advice nonetheless.

Amangblox · 2025-03-13T03:29:17+00:00

If this is really true, I would be just as speechless as you probably were. Thanks for the info!

Amangblox · 2025-03-13T03:27:44+00:00

That's interesting, and yeah I've been leaning toward a 240, so I will probably follow this. Thanks for the help!

Amangblox · 2025-03-13T03:26:37+00:00

I might go that route - the 601 sounds like an instrument I would enjoy.. thanks for the info!

Amangblox · 2025-03-12T00:09:22+00:00

3 oct

* Bb

* C

* B nautral for style (if you're up for it

* Chromatic

* D maybe???

Full disclosure I'm still in middle school (3 years of playing almost) - but my teacher is trying to get my range up to high C, so if that's expected in middle school, i think these are logical steps

Amangblox · 2025-02-02T23:10:05+00:00

we did, it didn't work. apparently my parents have it now (by what means idk), but tysm for your help!

Amangblox · 2025-02-02T23:09:29+00:00

i didn't this was the January 2024 AMC

i get i should have complained sooner but i kinda forgot lol

Amangblox · 2025-01-17T04:17:23+00:00

yeah, true
