Hey I have been a clarinet player for 5 years and love it. But I have a few questions? What types of clarinets do you all know about?( I know of Bb, bass, contrabass, Eb, and ive heard but not sure of a-Ab, C, and jazz) Where can I see pics of them? And also what are some things to look for when buying an Eb Clarinet

try ebay

Search on Google for different types of clarinet.

eBay is not a good place to buy instrument unless you have decided a certain model and you trusted all sellers.

I disagree! Ebay is a terrific place to buy instruments. I have had many, many successful encounters on ebay, and lots of terrific deals. You just have to know what you`re doing. Namely, do your research and you`ll be fine.

There are five "standard" clarinets. E-flat sopranino, B-flat soprano (the usual one), E-flat alto, B-flat bass, E-flat contra-alto, and B-flat contrabass. There is also an A clarinet, which is almost the same as a B-flat soprano. It`s used in an orchestral setting so that the keys the music is in are easier for the clarinet (instead of playing in B major, it would play in C major).

If you`re looking to buy a clarinet, see a professional dealer. Don`t buy a good clarinet off a website without testing it first. If you tell me what general area you live in, I`ll help you find someone, as well as recommending brands and models to try.
