This neck has the same poly-cylindrical bore profile as my standard neck but is made from thick walled rhodium plated brass! Rodhium was chosen for the plating as it has a similar look to silver but will not tarnish. This neck has a mouthpiece angle approximately 15 degrees steeper than stock, more in line with modern steep angle bass clarinet necks. This neck will fit the following models:
Kessler bass clarinet (will not fit on the new heavy mass necks! If your neck has a Kessler badge on it this neck will be too loose)
Ridenour bass clarinet (all generations)
Selmer model 30, 32 and 33 bass clarinets (including the Series 9)
Selmer 67 “Privilege” bass clarinet (wide angle necks only)
Yamaha 621 & 622 bass clarinet (all generations)
Note: due to wear and variation between instruments it may be necessary to have a tech fit the tuning slide of this neck to your instrument. Most of the time this is not necessary and the neck will fit well but I mention this as I have encountered situations where a slightly larger or smaller tenon is needed. A tech experienced with sax or flute repair will have no issue resizing the tuning slide.
