Made from ABS resin for enhanced durability
An important aspect to consider when purchasing a student bassoon is durability. After all, it has to survive the bumps and bruises it will surely encounter as it travels with your young musician from school and back. Plus, if it’s used for outdoor performances, you’ll want to make sure it can withstand the occasional run-in with inclement weather. For those reasons, Jupiter constructed the JBN1000 from robust matte ABS resin. Unlike wood, ABS resin is impervious to damage associated with fluctuating temperatures and humidity changes, while also being resilient against normal wear and tear. Yet, ABS resin has a look and sound reminiscent of wood, with a full-bodied tone and a pleasing top end.
Full German key system with silver-plated keys
To allow full exploration of the instrument, the Jupiter JBN1000 bassoon offers a full German key system with 22 silver-plated keys, which includes a high D key and a plateau C key on the third finger of the wing joint. There are also F# and C# trill keys, C#–D#, and F–Ab roller keys. The JBN1000’s key mechanism promises a fluid and responsive playing experience that will serve young players well as they master their fundamentals and advance to more complex fingering techniques.
Jupiter: guaranteed through graduation
A staple in classrooms everywhere, Jupiter band instruments are beloved by music teachers for good reason. Since 1980, the company has built high-quality band instruments for students of every development level. Innovations such as the Waveline flute headjoint and the patented Ergonomic trombone are just two examples of the company’s player-centered design philosophy. Each Jupiter instrument is inspected for quality throughout the manufacturing process, ensuring that it can endure bumps and bruises as easily as it can navigate technical passages. Sweetwater believes that every student should have access to the rich musical culture that unites us all. And with Jupiter’s player-first focus, anyone is welcome to embark upon an exciting and fulfilling musical journey through high school graduation and beyond.
