Re: Which Bass Clarinet?

Thanks - I appreciate all the thoughts. I'm not in a position to try one easily. It sounds like the Kessler is good but is a horn that would be outgrown?

(TBF, I have been playing on an E11 I bought in 1996 and while I've outgrown it, I haven't upgraded, mostly because I spent a decent amount of time playing the eefer and then didn't bother upgrading for college band..and then I decided to try bass instead of finding a used R 13 like a sensible middle aged hobbyist.)

I do not want a mechanical headache but I'm usually pretty gentle on equipment. Are repair techs generally OK with working on Kesslers?

But here's the question: Kessler over less expensive secondhand low Eb, assuming an upgrade in the future? Is the low C worth the premium?

Again, mostly thinking out loud, but open to all opinions.
