At one point, he was asked to overhaul a clarinet with a missing barrel. So he set out to make a brand-new one using exotic cocobolo wood, thus creating the very first Backun clarinet barrel. After that point, Backun gained international recognition for designing and creating a unique line of barrels, bells, and clarinets. Today, Backun Musical Services is recognized as a leader in the clarinet world, inspiring players of all ages and skill levels.Backun Alpha Student Bb Clarinet Features: Bb clarinet with Boehm key system, featuring 17 keys Made from a blend of synthetic materials for improved sound and durability Nickel-plated keys and black Valentino pads deliver responsive and reliable performance Unique, ringless design enhances resonance and projection Adjustable thumb rest with neck strap ring Includes Backun Protégé mouthpiece, Rovner Dark ligature and cap, and Légère Signature synthetic reed Comes in a protective hardshell case SpecificationDetail Type Soprano Key Bb Level Student Body Material Synthetic (proprietary) Key Finish Nickel-plated Barrel Length 65mm Alpha Bore Poly-cylindrical Pads Black Valentino, Synthetic Springs Traditional Flat Thumb Rest Adjustable with Neck Strap Ring Mouthpiece Backun Protege Ligature Rovner Dark Ligature and Cap Additional Features Legere Synthetic Reed Included Weight 1.44 lbs Case/Gig Bag Hardshell Case RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
