Common Questions About the Backun Q Series
Where does the Q Series sit in Backun's clarinet lineup?
The Q Series is a professional-featured line positioned below Backun's custom-level instruments. It is designed for advanced and professional players seeking Backun acoustical design and refined keywork at a more accessible point in the lineup.
Why are two barrels included?
The included 64 mm and 65 mm barrels give the player two setup options for adjusting pitch tendency, response, and resistance to suit the performance environment.
What is the benefit of the left Eb key?
The left Eb key provides an alternate fingering that can improve technical facility in passages where the standard right-hand Eb key is inconvenient.
