Full Boehm for everyone, including low E-flat! Nothing like a tone hole that goes thru the center joint ...
Did not the Pete Fountain clarinet have all the Buck Rogers extras?
The inexpensive Backun Alpha with the aux A-flat/E-flat seems to be a good idea for someone that would like to practice the use of the new key. No need to spend $5K and up to experiment. And the Alpha, with some personal adjustments and IMHO, better pads, plays pretty well.
Many players, that have tried the A-flat/E-flat don't like it ... Mitchell Laurie commented: "that extra key gets in the way"
