For intermediate students looking to own their first wooden step-up clarinet, the Beta offers unparalleled value and beautiful out-of-the box playability. Featuring unstained, naturally-aged grenadilla wood, the barrel, body and bell are all crafted in Canada from the exact same wood used for our professional and custom clarinets.
With a comfortable blowing resistance and an ergonomic key work mechanism, moving up to the Beta clarinet is a breeze. Water resistant black Valentino pads, an adjustable thumb rest with neck strap ring, and a durable hard shell case round out an impressive list of features at an even more impressive price.
Grenadilla wood body and black leather pads
Beta clarinets use the same naturally aged grenadilla wood as Backun’s flagship clarinets, allowing you to play with the warm, alluring tone you’d expect from their top models. The Beta is outfitted with nickel-plated keys that are as sturdy as they are comfortable, which shimmer and glow against their dark grenadilla canvas. The keys are also tailored with water-resistant black leather pads, ensuring the clarinet’s longevity while also adding subtle touches to its overall look.
