Backun BCLAQC-GKG Q Series A Clarinet Overview
The Backun BCLAQC-GKG Q Series Professional A Clarinet is a French-style professional A clarinet made from naturally unstained cocobolo wood with gold-plated keywork and modern Backun design refinements. Built for players who want a traditional feel with precise contemporary manufacturing, this model features a carbon fiber middle joint ring, inline trill keys that help move tone holes out of the waterline, and Backun’s proprietary bore and tone hole process for consistent intonation and response. This open-box example has seen only extremely light use as a demo or display instrument and includes two Backun Lumière barrels and a Lumière bell for added flexibility and refinement across the full range.
