That's why I moved to a Selmer Prestige 67 bass clarinet. Effortless sound, top to bottom. Since I just started bass clarinet last year, I didn't want to forego all my other instruments while I struggled to get a decent sound from the bass clarinet. My bass clarinet buddies who have tried my instrument just can't believe it. But they heard me go from squeaking clarion notes to smooth sound in all ranges.
Oh and the Walter Grabner LB mouthpiece didn't hurt either. :o)
Kessler Music in Las Vegas found me the instrument that had been used for the Selmer shows at NAMM and such. So this lovingly prepared, tweaked horn came to me for half the list price. But still, it was about the price of a car for many people. I say this not to brag, but to provide info to my friends who might be in the market.
