Some instruments sound Low Eb differently than others.

That depends on the instrument, brand, the placement of the keys, placement of the register mechanism, etc, etc, etc, etc. Some instruments sound Middle B and Middle C differently than others. Some things that individual instruments may tend to do: If the upper register is unresponsive it's because you aren't very good at playing in the upper register or you have a broken instrument. An instrument is stuffy when it is badly out of adjustment or you happen to be playing the wrong mouthpiece/reed combination for your embouchure and air flow level. Anyone who is complaining about this problem either has a badly broken instrument or an inability to play in the upper register consistently. Now I must point out some things that neither of these horns are: The keys are plated multiple times and the wood is thicker, making the instrument quite heavy.

You owe it to yourself to come out and see this instrument up close and spend some time playing on it.So, the other day I was getting my things ready for the beginning of the school year and I pulled out my plastic Bass to make sure everything was still in order. Our tech then replaced a few pads that needed it, and made several adjustments to make sure everything was sealing properly. They started out with a full disassembly and cleaning, with the body going into our ultrasonic tank and the keys getting a hand-polish. This bass clarinet needed a bit of work when it arrived here in our shop, and our professional woodwind technician got to work on it right away. This is a great, inexpensive option that would be good for any student looking for their first bass clarinet, or for a returning player who wants to avoid an expensive price tag.
