El modelo Backun Alpha Si b ABS de 18 llaves viene también en llaves plateadas y vienen con estuche tipo mochila? /
Good looking clarinet with great sound. The high notes are warmer and less sharp than the Yamaha 250. It is nice and light weight and has excellent good quality workmanship. The provided mouthpiece works, but is not as open as my mouth piece, the Vandoren B45. The corks are very tight. I had to put lots of cork grease. I wish it was better fitted and I did not have to use so much force to assemble it. I hope this will get better with use. This is just a first impression. I am sure I will fall in love with the Alpha, once I played more on it.
I purchase the Alpha and it is much better than the one I purchase for amazon. I has difference sound and is lighter. the keys are easier to play. keep in mind i am a beginner and 58 years old. I guess never too old to play a new instrument.
The Clarinet is smooth and the sound is interesting. I really like it!
Very very nice, the sound is incredible. I use with a granadilla bell, somebody knows the size for the barrel, I would like to buy one but I don't know the right size?
Hi Marco, The Alpha clarinet ships with a 65 mm barrel! If you'd like to order, any of our Standard Fit products will work well, but please specify that you have an Alpha at checkout so we can ensure a proper fit! Thank you!
