Backun Global
Alpha Low Eb Bass Clarinet
Affordable, Lightweight and Loveable
Imagine a professional instrument designed for advancing bass clarinet players and artists, alike. The Backun Alpha Low Eb Bass Clarinet utilizes the same acoustical design and durable key mechanism found on the Q Series Bass Clarinet as the foundation for this synthetic Low Eb version, which is available in two body configurations. Alpha Bass Clarinets feature a neck and bell that are crafted from brass and hand-finished, providing a vibrant tone and incredible projection. From a lightweight proprietary body to hardened and triple-strike plated key work available in durable nickel or bright silver plating, Alpha Low Eb Bass Clarinets are equally at home in the classroom, studio or outdoor concert venues.
Two Case Options for Alpha Low Eb Two-Piece Bass Clarinets
Choose between a sturdy compact ABS hardshell case for rental fleets, schools and travel, or a stylish compact lightweight ballistic nylon backpack case for those on the go.
Alpha Low Eb Bass Clarinet - One Piece
Specifically designed for schools and performing groups that require a one-piece bass clarinet body, the Backun Alpha Low Eb One-Piece Bass Clarinet includes all of the key work and finishing features of the Alpha Low Eb Two-Piece body with a centre-joint mechanism that safely and securely fortifies the upper and lower joints together in one piece. This reduces the need for advancing young artists to assemble the instrument each time, preventing possible damage to the bridge mechanism while ensuring proper alignment of the joints. The one-piece model is only available in a sturdy Long ABS Hardshell Case that securely stacks and stands in both vertical and horizontal positions.
