Chadash Basset A Extension and Bell

The Chadash Basset A Extension and Bell is a unique design featuring a key system which is utilizing an open Eb key below the staff while the following D through low C are closed keys which opens as one pushes the corresponding touch pieces. It comes with a cylindrical bore which is much more efficient considering that the low notes on the basset A tend to spread and not tune very well.

Lower joint A clarinet extended to basset A with a key system that has the notes Eb to low C controlled and played by the right hand only. Being the Eb the only open key and D, Db and low C are closed keys that open as you need to play them rather than the tradition open keys that close to make a note sound. The bore on the lower A extension is exclusively cylindrical which greatly adds to the clarity and ring as well as the intonation of those low notes which traditionally suffer from lack of focus and center.
