Kronwalt Bassoon

A bassoon made in collaboration between Wolf (Kronach, Germany) and Walter (Pleidelsheim, Germany).
The basic idea was to unite the extensive and accumulated know-how of both companies. This has led to the creation of a fully-fledged, professional bassoon for the demanding bassoonist with a well-balanced value for the money.
