The Leblanc 1176PS is also a plateau model. It is a pro-grade wood
clarinet, with a relatively large .582 bore. This basic body and bore
(model 1176) is also available with other special mechanisms, like fork
Eb/Bb (1177S), articulated C#/G# key (1186S), both that and fork Eb/Bb
(1187S), all that plus auxiliary Ab/Eb key (1197S), and full Boehm
(1199S). All of these models, EXCEPT the plateau model, are special order
jobs, though.

If you have to mic a saxophone, the rest of the band is TOO LOUD!
