first of all, you will need to know how to read bass clef. You won't even be able to read the warm up if you don't. once you have a reed, go ahead and ask an oboe player how to use it if you haven't or can't figure it out yourself. if it's satisfactory just stick it on the bassoon (assuming you can put it together (you can ask a clarinet player for help with this)) and honk out a few notes. clarinet players can help you out with fingerngs also. as a hint, just tell them that right hand 3 is C.
picking reeds is usuall the hardest, especially for a brass player. i suggest using medium soft reeds for now. usually any medium soft reed from brook mays or a local music store is okay.
i really have no idea how to hold a bassoon correctly. i switched from clarinet. don't forget to use tons of air to get all the notes out. for fingering charts ask on the fingering boards.
