    I am proud to now offer  RIGOTTI processed bassoon cane at prices that are not only affordable but guaranteed to be the lowest you will find anywhere.   There is no middleman or subtractor here....all work is done personally by
    me
    First,
    the RIGOTTI tube cane is split. It is then cut to 120mm and pre-gouged on a Reeds'nStuff crank pre-gouger. Then the cane is gouged on the
    Rolls Royce
    of gougers, the Kunibert Michel.  These machines are almost impossible to find in this country & very expensive - but are amazing in their ability to produce smooth and consistent gouges.  Warped and damaged cane is discarded.
    Gouge thickness is approximately  .125-.130mm(+/-3).
    Finally, the cane is profiled on a Rieger profiler.
    Profile thickness is about 85-90mm at collar.
    Tube length is about
    30mm.
    Next, the cane is sanded and polished using a multi-step process involving various abrasive sponges and papers.  The polishing of the soft side of the cane is critical in minimizing plaque and debris build up inside your reed, as well as sealing off the pores of the cane to prolong reed life. This step is optional so please let me know your preference when you order.
    Then, cane is shaped to your
    REQUESTED SHAPE
    : (see above)
    Please attach a  note in the lower portion PayPal payment with your shape preference,  or contact me directly.
    (If I do not hear from you with a shape preference, I will ship the default RIGOTTI Shape)
    Specs for all the FOX shapes listed above can be found on their web page.
    This would be a great opportunity to try some marvelous cane with a shape perhaps you have never used.  Please attach a  note to your PayPal payment with your shape preference,  or contact me directly.  I will be adding more shape options as my business expands, so please check back periodically.
    Finally, the cane is profiled on a Rieger profiler.
    Profile thickness is about 85-90mm  at collar & tube length is approx. 29mm.
