The W Schreiber S51 is a low A contrabassoon, made from 10 year old alpine mountain maple. It is similar to the S41, but extends the range to a low A. It has silver plated keys and keywork to high E. Features include a doubled Eb key, high D and high Eb keys on the wing joint, and key guards on B, D, A, and F#. Schreiber contrabassoons enrich the entire bassoon section in any orchestra. Its very even response and ergonomic keywork make the transition from bassoon to contrabassoon easy, even during a performance. Intonation is also helped by the tuning slide.
