Frequently Asked Questions
Aged grenadilla generally possesses a more open and resonant tone with increased complexity, often described as ‘warmer’ due to the wood’s density changes over time.
The silver plating is robust but will naturally tarnish over time; regular polishing with a suitable silver cleaner is recommended to maintain its appearance and action.
While Schreiber maintains excellent support, sourcing replacement parts for limited editions may become more challenging in the future; establishing a relationship with a qualified bassoon repair technician is wise.
