The 685 is the latest professional bassoon from Fox. A variation of the Model 680, it is built with thicker walls and longer tone holes to produce a darker, more concentrated tone and greater dynamic range. The Model 685 is a unique design that provides the performer unlimited power as a soloist or member of a large orchestra while preserving the singing quality and flexibility in the tenor register.
