The Ridenour Lyrique Basset A Clarinet enables you to play the Mozart Clarinet Concerto, Mozart Clarinet Quintet as Mozart originally wrote them for Anton Stadler. The range extends the low register to a written "C" below low "E" (concert "A"). Unlike manufacturers that also offer the Basset A we at RCP make it easy for you to afford, offering it to you in not one, but three possible options.

Option 1. You may order the basset A clarinet as an additional joint, along with the Lyrique A clarinet.

Option 2.You may order the basset A lower joint by itself.
Unless you own a Lyrique A clarinet, this will require you to send us your present A clarinet so it can be matched
with our basset A lower joint. The acoustical matching and set up will be personally done by Tom Ridenour.
The basset A lower joint is acoustically compatible with the Buffet R-13 and Festival A clarinets, and most Yamaha A clarinet models.

Option 3. You may order the basset A clarinet by itself, in its own individual case.

Basset A clarinet lower joint and Lyrique A clarinet as a set is $1,995.00*.
Basset A, hand tuned and adjusted to match your present Buffet or Yamaha A clarinet: $1,025.00
Basset A clarinet, complete with individual case: 1,495.00

*Basset A lower joint will come in its separate case.
