A mid-range wooden bass clarinet to low Eb that nicely bridges the gap between the student plastic models and the rather more expensive professional models. The 1180 student bass clarinet is crafted in the Buffet Crampon tradition. Manufactured in natural, unstained Grenadilla wood, the 1180 creates a beautiful, dark, rich sound. Power forged silver plated keywork and high quality wood will make any student feel and play like a professional.
