I've already started (sort of), in the process of building a low-C extension for my bass clarinet made out of part of a plastic Normandy bass clarinet bottom end, a bunch of saxophone key parts, and not nearly enough free time to finish the job....

Thanks for the link, Ken. Interesting stuff.
Curious: when he calls 60 Hz Bb, wonder what pitch and temperament he means? In even temper A=440, it's almost 50 cents sharp.
Making an instrument similar to a Clarinet has interested me for a long time, but I'm too busy on the computer (???).
Regards,
John

Not to be technical, but isn't it just a crude (bass) clarinet, defining a clarinet as a cylindrical single-reed wind instrument? I wish they had a picture.
