Carbon Fibre Contrabassoon Stand - Strong yet Under 760grams

Under 760 grams (over 4 times lighter than most contra stands!)
Carbon fibre tubes used, are much stronger than metal
Additional 4th leg makes it more stable than other contra stands
Collapses down very small
Quick to assemble/disassemble
Tubes are stored within each other to save space
Quite often the parts will fit in the contrabassoon case (even in some gig bags):

Easy to transport
No extra luggage costs
Nearly no extra weight in the case!

Classy carbon fibre finish

Some parts are made from a high quality durable plastic, these parts cannot be carbon fibre as it cannot be machined in the required fashion.

Lightweight and compact

Excellent contrabassoon stand! Really lightweight and compact. The instructions don't make sense, but it's pretty obvious how it all fits together. The stand now lives in the pocket of my gig bag. Sent very promptly by Crook and Staple.

Makes life easier

It weighs very little, compared with conventional stands. It packs away inside the gig bag and is easy to assemble and disassemble. As I also have the CF bassoon stand I can now go to a doubling gig with two bags instead of three. Yes, they are a bit expensive but worthwhile in my view.

Ok product, useless service

Reed making kit was ok, though they only supplied 5m of wire instead of the advertised 10m. Emailed them and got no response. I now have another order outstanding and overdue and they never answer the phone so i have no way of contacting them to find out what’s happening.

Marsden Bassoon Reeds

Surprisingly Free and easy to play, and very stable! Definitely will order again.

Great pencil

Great pencil, so handy having it magnetic so it's easy to find during rehearsals.

Cork Grease Stick

0 stars is more accurate

This bassoon case arrived after a longer wait than what was expected, per the website and order confirmation email. Within a week of use the strap broke. Ridiculous. Add to that the fact that I have emailed the company detailing the situation including photos of the broken strap and have not been contacted other then to say that it could be a week to 10 days or something ridiculous until I get a response. That time has since passed. Completely disgusted with this useless product!!! Don’t be duped like I was. Shop somewhere else.

Very good

Very good quality and have lasted a while

Good but

Although the reed is just perfect, I would have thought the shipping would have been with a sort of holder to protect it, like for clarinet for exemple. But I am new to oboe, so I wont complain any further.

3-stars…it ain’t bad! (but it is big…)

I recently purchased the 6-bassoon/3-contrabassoon wooden reed case from Crook and Staple, and I have mixed feelings about it. First off, the case is a bit larger than I expected, but fortunately, it fits into my Pro-Tec Bassoon Case "ok" above the boot joint on the inner lid-protected storage.

One of the things I really love about this case is the ample room it provides for each reed. It’s great to have dedicated space for my reeds, ensuring they stay secure and protected. However, I did have to re-glue two of the bracing ends that hold down the contrabassoon and bassoon reed holder rods, which was a bit disappointing.

Overall, I’m happy with my purchase and would suggest it to other bassoonists. Just keep in mind that this reed case is larger than expected, so plan accordingly. Also, be aware that it doesn't have a latch; it closes with magnets, which means it could fall open if left loose in a bag.

In summary, I’m giving it 3 out of 5 stars, but I would still recommend it to fellow bassoonists!

Brass staple

I will get back to you after our rehearsal....should be interesting... hopefully with this reed i will be heard over the bagpiper whos playing ....beautifully made reed...
