Does anyone know if there are standard or custom made extensions for the upright Contra Alto Clarinets out in the wild.

I made a one-note (low-D) extension for my Selmer-USA (Bundy) contra-alto, but not building any for sale to others.

I personally do not have a contra alto but I've extended my Bundy low Eb bass clarinet down to low C.
If I were to think of anyone for extensions, I'd ask Stephen Fox: http://www.sfoxclarinets.com/

Similar to Dave, I used to have a Bundy with a D extension. Steve Fox made it for me.

A couple of years ago, a low C# Selmer contra-alto was listed on ebay. It looked like the lower joint was one single piece of wood, so it must have been built to low C# in the factory.
