Model 222
The Renard Standard
Description
Introduced in 1971, the Renard Model 222 bassoon's long bore
design can be identified by its very warm "round" tone, with even
balance and excellent intonation throughout the entire range. The
reasonable price and durable wooden body make this instrument a
popular choice for new bassoonists and school music programs
looking to add a wooden bodied instrument to their bassoon
section.
Body
Maple, selected for maximum durability and naturally aged in our
own facilities. Durable synthetic linings in the wing joint and
small bore of the boot joint. German bell (white ring). Body lock.
Finish
Acrylic Enamel
Mechanism
Nickel silver keys with silver plating. Full German system.
Additional high D key available as an option. Plateau key on wing
joint third finger hole. Rollers on F, A(flat), E(flat), and
D(flat). Metal tubes extending into the bore in the finger holes
of the wing joint to prevent water from entering the tone holes.
All posts set in epoxy and spring posts are locked with screws.
Intonation
Individually hand tuned to A-440 pitch with maximum resonance and
projection.
Bocals
Numbers 2 and 3, C Bore.
