The Fox 300 professional oboe is one of the company's most popular and long-standing models. As a plastic-resin version of their traditional oboes, the Fox 300 offers a rich, full sound combined with increased durability and dependable intonation. It features exemplary keywork, crafted by Fox’s skilled artisans, including a full conservatory key system with silver-plated keys. The instrument comes with a high-quality professional case, a premium 6-reed case, a care cloth, a silk swab, and grenadilla tenon caps. Designed to withstand less-than-ideal conditions, such as outdoor performances, the Fox 300 is an excellent choice for active musicians with busy performance schedules.
The Fox 300 is built with a durable high-quality plastic resin body, designed to replicate the appearance and tonal qualities of grenadilla wood. This construction provides a warm, rich sound similar to that of wooden instruments while being resistant to temperature fluctuations, humidity, and minor impacts. The oboe is also equipped with cork pads on the low C and higher notes, and bladder pads on the low B and Bb keys, requiring minimal maintenance and ensuring long-term reliability.
Featuring a full conservatory key system with silver-plated keys, the Fox 300 allows players to explore advanced techniques. Each key is meticulously hand-mounted by Fox’s expert assemblers. The key system includes a third octave key, a left-hand F key, an F resonance mechanism, a B tab, an articulated C# mechanism, a split D ring, a low Bb with a vent key, and multiple trill keys. This setup enables players to expand their repertoire and fully utilize the instrument’s capabilities.
