It's more resonant than many of the low-quality plastics used to make other student clarinets, and it's also incredibly strong. Because of its lighter weight and overall resilience, musicians at Sweetwater recommend the Alpha for any situation where using a wood instrument isn’t as practical, such as outdoor concerts or in the classroom.Reliable mechanics encourage flawless technique The Alpha bass clarinet delivers a mechanically seamless playing experience — one you can count on to remain consistent for years to come. This outstanding bass clarinet is equipped with a triple register mechanism for precise tuning, as well as an articulated G# mechanism that opens the door to alternative fingerings. As a result, you'll find it easier than ever to practice good technique. To mitigate any discomfort while playing, Backun included an adjustable thumb rest and neck strap loop, allowing you to achieve a setup that feels tailor-made.Backun Musical Services: reinventing the clarinet one piece at a time Founder Morrie Backun started with a small woodwind repair shop outside of Vancouver, Canada. At one point, he was asked to overhaul a clarinet with a missing barrel. So he set out to make a brand-new one using exotic cocobolo wood, thus creating the very first Backun clarinet barrel. After that point, Backun gained international recognition for designing and creating a unique line of barrels, bells, and clarinets. Today, Backun Musical Services is recognized as a leader in the clarinet world, inspiring players of all ages and skill levels.Backun Alpha Bass Clarinet Features: Bass clarinet for students and advanced players Range to low Eb Synthetic body construction is lightweight and durable Triple-strike plated keywork resists wear and tear Adjustable thumb rest helps you achieve maximum comfort Includes an articulated G# key Ships with a floor peg and an ABS hardshell case SpecificationDetail Type Bass Clarinet Key Low Eb Body Material Synthetic Key Finish Nickel-plated Tone Holes Undercut (upper joint), Overcut Vented Wings (lower joint) Thumb Rest Adjustable Key System Articulated G# Mechanism Additional Features Backrun Peg Included Weight Lightweight Case/Gig Bag ABS Hardshell Case RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
