Re: Clark Fobes is amazing!

I purchased a Fobes bass cl. mouthpiece recently because I was asked to play bass in a local high school production of "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying". They let me borrow the Selmer school bass clarinet, which seemed just awful....then I bought this Fobes mouthpiece and it made the instrument sing. Still not that great a horn, but way way better than it was on that school mouthpiece, and I had no experience on bass before. It quickly became my favorite instrument to play in that show. So, now I just "need" a lovely instrument to go with the mouthpiece!

I will have to check out the Eb extension...I'm relatively new on that instrument as well, and it plays quite sharp on most notes. Now to get a decent job so I can afford all these gadgets!

BTW John, a couple of my students have seen "Wicked" on Broadway and loved it. I hope to get up there myself sometime.
