Fobes Bb Clarinet Barrel - HDP

The barrel is one of the most overlooked upgrades on a clarinet, and the Fobes barrel makes its contributions in specific, measurable ways. The inverted cone bore design is built to work in conjunction with Fobes mouthpieces and delivers consistent improvements: closer twelfth intervals, slightly lowered pitch in the upper left-hand register, more focused throat tones, and increased resonance and response throughout the instrument.

The high-density polymer construction is the practical choice for players in Calgary and anywhere else the climate is working against wooden equipment. It will not warp, crack, or shift dimensionally over time — no matter how dry, cold, or variable the conditions get. The tone has a responsive, focused quality with a brightness and liveliness that players describe as a bit more "zing" — a characteristic of the material that suits players who want a cleaner, more present sound.

Available in Bb taper, adjustable from 64mm to 67mm.
