Fox Professional Tristan Model English Horn 580

Description

Made of select maple and finished like a professional bassoon, the Tristan Model 580 English horn has all the depth and resonance for which Fox is known and is 25% lighter in weight than a standard grenadilla English horn. The maple adds a complexity of tone that both blends well in woodwind sections and projects well as a solo instrument.
