Re: new neck to an old bass

Hi Michal

How are you?

If I understand your question right, you are looking for a new neck made to fit your clarinet. Some people who might be able to make a new neck for your bass are Morrie Backun in Vancouver, Steve Fox in Toronto, Gloger in Germany. There is also a place in Holland that I hear makes excellent necks but maybe only for new Buffets. There are probably other people who has the ability to make a new neck and I will try to find out for you.

One thing is if you'll have a new neck made it will take a long time since AFAIK they have to be made especially since every model of bass clarinet is different (some makers will take longer than others).

The main problem would be to make sure it fits your bass clarinet. You'd have to either physically visit whoever makes you the neck with your bass clarinet, or maybe ship the old neck.

Hope that helps.

Nitai
