Hello, I'm completely new to the Clarinet and decided to give the Bass Clarinet a try. I'm mostly a trumpet player and would like to know which Bass Clarinet brand I should buy online. I've seen brands like Noblet, Selmer, Vito(although some people said to stay away from these) ect. What can I get within the 1000 dollar range or less that is decent or maybe an older vintage pro model might do?
What are the things I should ask about/check for when buying used Bass Clarinets online?
Which Bass Clarinet brand would you recommend to me?
Also which should I pick? The ones that pitch to Eb or Bb? I don't really understand becuase some people say that some Bass Clarinets have an extra attachment area on the bottom to allow the player to hit a few lower notes.
