Fox Student Crutch

The Fox Student Crutch is the hand rest for the right hand, and it is intended to control the right hand's distance from the bassoon itself, to make playing more comfortable. This is intended as a replacement part for a Fox or Fox Renard student line of bassoons, made of wood or polypropylene. The diameter of the crutch post is 4.73mm for those who want to try it on a non-Fox instrument.

It fits the crutch bracket that is usually installed on the following models: Fox Model 3 or 4, Renard 222, 220, 240, and 260. The Fox Student Crutch Bracket and Thumb Screw, also as replacement parts, are sold separately.
