I was a HS band clarinet player about 45 years ago and have recently begun relearning it because the formation of a local community band stirred my interest. Anyhoo, way back there - 47 or 48 years ago, I played with a school instrument bassoon some and loved it. So, now that I'm doing this band thing, I scrounged up a Lafleur bassoon and would like to find out something about it. It is obviously a beginner's model as it doesn't have any of the usual extra keys of a more advanced model. On the instrument all it says is Lafleur Artist, London and Paris, made in France, and each piece is numbered either 25V or V25 (the former has the V located right after the 25 while the latter has the V above the 25). I find no other numbers anywhere on the outside of the instrument or under the boot cap.
Any information out there on this thing?
