The P Mauriat 17-key clarinet plays, feels, responds, and possesses all of the aesthetics of the traditional French design. The solid Grenadilla body, ringed bell, and interchangeable 65/66 mm barrels allow the clarinetist to fit in any ensemble, section, or solo setting, with the familiarity of a traditional resistance ‘feel.’ With a remarkably in-tune scale and tonal consistency throughout all registers, this instrument will provide years of unlimited growth and performance for clarinetists of all skill levels. Choice of nickel or silver keys; all clarinets come with a wide, adjustable thumb rest with neck-strap loop.
