 Re: Seeking Advice for Bassoon Purchase

My daughter just got a 34 on her ACT test, which puts her at 99th percentile. She's been an easy kid to raise because she's worked so hard. She wants to major in math and physics. Someday, I'm sure, she'll be able to afford a truly great bassoon. In the meantime, I'd like to find her a decent one. I have looked online at MidWest Musical Imports, but they were selling an old Fox Renard for $2,500 that was very similar in age and was the same model as the one we decided against buying for $1,000. I think I'm in the garage sale territory with our price constraints. Still, time is on my side, and I am still looking. If anyone knows of a way to look at a bassoon picture and identify some of the features listed above (like high D), I'd appreciate it. Or, maybe there's a book or brochure I could get that shows the differences. There's an online picture of two bassoons, one with and one without a high D, but I don't see the difference! Thanks.
