Description
The first choice among music educators!
Sounding two octaves lower than a traditional bass clarinet, the contra-bass is a must have for symphonic bands, wind ensembles and clarinet choirs. The great sounding, yet affordable Leblanc L7182 contra-bass clarinet fills that programming need without utilizing your program’s entire annual budget.
Designed to continue performing at a high level while weathering years of band room use, the Leblanc L7182 is made of the unique Leblanc Reso-Tone™ synthetic for a remarkably wood-like sound. The durable key work is crafted from power forged nickel silver while the neck and bell are manufactured from genuine Bach brass.
Offering amazing depth of sound and highly durable, the Leblanc L7182 contra-bass clarinet will be foundational instrument in your program for years to come.
