Looking for advice on buying a bass clarinet. This will primarily be used for pit orchestras so not my primary instrument. I'm trying out an old Guy Humphrey's Bass right now...but it's "stuffy". Supposedly, it was recently repadded. It has an unmarked/unreadable mouthpiece and I've been using a 2 1/2 Rico Reed to test it out. Could the "stuffy" sound be just the mouthpiece??? Or could it be the bass itself. I'd prefer a 2 piece bass clarinet, just for portablility.....and don't even know if there's a Resotone/composite Bass that is a 5 piece. I'm not looking for a professional level bass clarinet...just something that I can use for pit work as a doubler.
Thanks for your time!
Mark
