Re: Student Level Bass Clarinets

While it is the only bass clarinet I have ever played, I have a Leblanc 7166 or 7168 and I love it. I bought it secondhand couple years ago from a jazz musician. Key response is great and has a full even tone, as well works good with the softer reeds (1.5 and 2) that I prefer to use. The low E-flat sounds typically like a fart, but that's really the only poor note. It actually does decent sustainable cheater B notes with the side trill keys. Was the best $850 I spent on an instrument.
