Re: Bass Clarinet Neck Angle

Each angle has its own ergonomic advantages depending on what any player prefers and how they like to hold the instrument itself.

Current Selmers can be ordered with the flatter angle neck (same as the 37 model neck), or at least they used to, I haven't checked for a couple of years (I assume it's still possible).

Buffet supposedly had/have a flatter angle neck, according to someone from Buffet. I tried ordering this neck from three series Buffet dealers and the closest I got was that a dealer confirmed this with Buffet, then received a regular neck. From hundreds I've never actually seen anyone with it... so I'm not sure it actually exists...
