An excellent professional instrument, the 1183 Bass Clarinet is equally well suited for the concert band or the symphony orchestra. The 1183 Bass Clarinet produces a rich, well centered tone that blends easily with an ensemble. In addition to an Eb/Ab lever and a 2nd speaker key, the 1183 is available with factory options such as middle F# resonance and a D/A resonance key. Buffet combines its history of a rich, pure tone with modern keywork to produce the 1183 Bass Clarinet. A second speaker key adds much sonority to the low register.
