Clark Fobes hand crafts his low clarinet mouthpeices and tests them himself. This is the San Francisco model. This mouthpiece is used, but in excellent condition! There is no damage to the tip or rails.  This mouthpiece was made from a Zinner Blank.  Zinner German Rubber is considered to be some of the best in the world!

Inlcuded with this mouthpiece is an ornate custom Bay ligature and silver Selmer Paris cap!

The Pure Brass Ligature has been disigned for a perfect match with hard rubber and wooden mouthpieces.

The stainless steel wires of the original Ultimate Ligature have been replaced by a brass brace.  The tightening is assured by a single top screw and it uses a solid brass pressure plate.  The longitudinal contact with the mouthpiece by brass resonating pipes and rolls guarantees free vibrations of the reed-mouthpiece ensemble.  The result:  a deeper, warmer tone with a well balanced resistance and great projection.

Comes with the "Smart Cap" inlcuded.

ISHIMORI's craftsmen take a number of manufacturing processes to produce high-quality Wood Stone Handmade Ligatures. All the ligatures are precisely hand-finished. These ligatures are designed to be versatile for every player in different genres being satisfied with its highest quality and sound.

These are really wonderful ligatures played by such notable clarinetists as:

• Anthony McGill - Principle Clarinetist of the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra
• Johan Hindler - The Vienna Philharmonic
• Mark Nuccio - Associate Principle Clarinetist of the New York Philharmonic
• Sam Caviezel - Associate Principle Clarinetist of the Philadelphia Orchestra

SUMMER SPECIAL

This is a vintage Leblanc Wooden Bass Clarinet that was formerly owned by a professional for many years.  The instrument is in very good condition.  We do not do any clarinet work at this time so you are purchasing "as is" and you can have your local tech do any work required to make it play as well as it can.

Price is really low since it needs a lot of work.  If you put $500 or so into this instrument, it will play really well for you.  It has some cracks and needs thorough cleaning and new pads.  It does play right now, but could be a much better instrument with the work.

Comes with the original Leblanc hard shell case, mouthpiece, cap and ligature.

This is a vintage Leblanc Wooden Bass Clarinet Serial #546.  

The closer tip opening the "Focus" provides a greater ease of playing as well as a centered and flexible tone.  Made in Paris by Selmer.

1.90mm tip opening and 32mm table length.

No ligature or cap included.

Produced from cane selected for it's specific proportiions, the V12 reeds have a thicker heel and are cut on a longer pallet with a slightly thicker tip than the Traditional.  The longer pallet means that more of the reed is vibrating, resulting a deeper, richer sound.  The thicker tip gives body to the attack and also increases the longevity of the reed.

#3 and #3.5 available.  Other strengths can be ordered.

Great playing, inexpensive student model mouthpiece.

This is the best playing student mouthpiece i have found so far.  Works well with any bass clarinet, new or vintage.  A slightly brighter sound than a hard rubber mouthpiece, but a great mouthpiece to start on that will help you produce a good sound quality right away.

4C facing is in stock.  Others by special order.
