Re: New contrabass clarinet

I want one too, but I'm going to have to think real hard to justify it since I am in possession of a paperclip (not mine) which I can use for any group I play with.

Justification to get one:
- The trill keys and other extra keys would be great!
- It goes to C and the contra I'm playing only goes to D.
- It would be mine and not belong to someone else.
- It sits on the floor rather than the chair.
- Help! Give me some more reasons I can use.

I would like to get someone's opinion on the key positioning. I'm not thrilled about the Leblanc's when I compare it to my Buffet bass.

I've always wondered what undercut toneholes on a contra would do. Yet, I don't think anyone has tried this.

As far as carrying it in a sports car, there is no problem. I put my 1193 bass in the trunk and the contra rides shotgun.
