Selmer USA CL301 Student Clarinet Standard

The internal bore design of the Selmer USA CL301 compares to many professional handmade Bb clarinets. The use of carefully located tapers (conical) and straight (cylindrical) sections creates a smooth, consistent scale. The Selmer CL Series clarinets enable musicians of all ages and abilities to produce a refined, resonant tone quality. <br> <br>The shape of the USA Selmer CL301 clarinet bore ensures that it plays in tune with itself; play a low G, add the register key to produce the D a twelfth above, and check the pitch of both notes—they should register as in tune. Do the same with low A and middle E, low Bb and middle F, low B# and middle F#. Critical undercutting of the tone holes refines this tuning process and enhances a full, even sound over the entire range. <br> <br>The Selmer CL301 makes playing the clarinet effortless. Key placement and size becomes very critical for young musicians. Small fingers can easily cover the profile and size of the CL301's ring keys. Ergonomic positioning of the left-hand little finger keys and throat A facilitates advanced technique. This clarinet's professional-style tapered pivot screws lends it a light, positive action. <br>
