Just a quick question, what type of neck strap do you wear? It looks different than the normal fox ones I've been using.

[tewelltube]

The neckstrap is made by BG. Terry

I have one quick question, So ive see many other bassoonists wear neck straps, but I personally use the seat belt. From your own experience, which one do you think is best to use/ wear? The neck trap or the belt?

[tewelltube]

I use a seat strap whenever seated and ALSO a neck strap.

[dymondegaly]

What colors do they come in?

[tewelltube]

I think the Fox polyprophelene bassoons only come in black.

Hey I maybe switch to the bassoon from tenor trombone, how difficult would it from buzzing to double reed? Thanx for the videos!

I wish there were videos this good when I was teaching myself to play sax. The man is a great teacher. Almost makes me want to pick up the bassoon as well.

@bluetiger154 i tried that too, but it wasnt as stable so i had to go buy a seat strap (:

[bluetiger154]

can I use an alto sax neck strap as my neck strap?

@tewelltube So it's a person and not a company? I googled "BG. Terry" but nothing musical came up.
