Re: Bass Clarinet in C?

A bass in C that descends to low E or Eb will only descend an extra semitone or whole tone lower than a basset horn.

Although a modern Buffet basset horn (and others built with a bell vent for the low C) will descend to written low B (sounding concert E) which will be the same lowest note as a C bass to low E.
