In addition, the key and tone hole placement is optimized for ideal finger placement that encourages good playing habits while maintaining precise intonation. The keys are also decidedly sturdy and require minimal maintenance, saving you on repair costs. Moreover, the Alpha Plus features water-resistant black Valentino pads, which are a favorite among Sweetwater clarinetists for their long-lasting, reliable performance.Made with professional-grade aged grenadilla wood Because of its dense grain, moisture-repellent properties, eye-catching appearance, and warm tone, grenadilla is the material of choice for most professional-grade clarinets. However, it’s rarely used for student instruments, which is why the Alpha Plus is in a class of its own. Made of the same high quality tonewood as its pro-level counterparts, the Alpha Plus is practically guaranteed to give young players an edge over composite clarinet models.Backun Musical Services: reinventing the clarinet one piece at a time Founder Morrie Backun started with a small woodwind repair shop outside of Vancouver, Canada. 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 Plus Bb Clarinet Features: Bb clarinet with Boehm key system, featuring 17 keys Made from real aged grenadilla wood Nickel-plated keywork Water resistant 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 SpecificationDetail Type Soprano Key Bb Level Student Body Material Grenadilla Key Finish Nickel Bell Material Grenadilla with Lumière-styled Metal Rings Barrel Length 65mm Barrel Material Grenadilla with Lumière-styled Metal Rings Bore Poly-cylindrical Pads Custom Black Leather Springs Traditional Flat Thumb Rest Adjustable with Neck Strap Ring Mouthpiece Protégé Mouthpiece Kit Ligature Included Case/Gig Bag Custom Case RETURN INFORMATION We want you to be completely happy with your purchase from Sweetwater.
