Hey everyone,
Just posted my independent review on the NEW Kessler 2nd generation bass clarinet to low c. You can find the video on YouTube (it will probably appear when typing "Kessler low c bass clarinet"). Its an affordable, professional bass clarinet and has improved on many things that the 1st generation (that was discontinued a few months ago) lacked. I was very fortunate to get one of the instruments from the first batch and I am blown away by its quality and playability. Check out the vid!
Musically yours,
Lukas Johnson

I've searched through 5 pages of search results on Youtube and can't find it.

Thanks for the link. I'm curious, how are the basset keys? On my Ridenour the left hand low D key was incredibly stiff and the thumb keys had a ton of travel making it very difficult to play fast passages in the extended range.

The basset keys are very light and close surprisingly easily. The left hand low d is very nice and they improved it much compared to the first gen model. The keywork is also incredibly strong as a whole. The left hand low d is so nice feeling because the low f, e, and eb are very light.
Musically yours,
