Yes his low note is D concert, or the "low E" of a B flat instrument. My take on it is that, for tonal reasons, he prefers to play on a C instrument. The maker could produce any options he could dream up, and this is the onlyest reason. This gives him the sound he wants plus the ability to play along with most anybody else. The bottom line is, he likes it.
This is something many people are not at all ready for. Most of us accept whatever the big three throws at us and leave it at that. It is a big leap of faith to accept that there exist people who can produce, for you, your own personal dream instrument. If you, given the money and a talented instrument maker, could order a clarinet to your own specifications, what goodies would you ask for?
