Instructions for use

 

Fit the key ring on the ring that takes the neck strap hook on the bassoon. The thin strap then goes round the back of the bassoon (under the keywork) and does up with the buckle in front of the instrument facing the player. The hook from the neck strap will then hook in to the new “D” ring at the top of the balance hanger.

 

The balance hanger can be adjusted to achieve optimum balance by choosing one of three preset positions. Simply undo the metal screw and reposition in one of the other positions provided.

 

This device can be moved from instrument to instrument and avoids the necessity of drilling holes in the instrument.
