Stephen,
If you're at all serious about bass clarinet, get the low C model.
The extended range is used in the orchestral world. It does not affect the
tone color of the low F, E, Eb. Before you look for a good bass make sure
you have a good (great) mouthpiece. It doesn't make sense to spend a
couple of thousand dollars on a new pro model bass and NOT get the extended
range.
