Michael –
This bass clarinet feels great to play and resonates well. It makes it easy to play throughout the range of the instrument (particularly in the upper registers, which often are hard to get to on a bass clarinet), even for an amateur like myself. It’s also very competitively priced for a low C bass clarinet of this quality. I’m looking forward to playing this instrument for many years to come.
