CARBEC Double Resonator Clarinet Barrel
Direct from Italy, the CARBEC Double Resonator Clarinet Barrel is a complete reimagining of what a modern barrel can do for your sound. If you are tired of dealing with the inconsistencies, warping, and changing dimensions of traditional wood, this barrel is the ultimate high-tech upgrade for the modern clarinetist.
Instead of traditional woven carbon fiber (which can heavily dampen vibrations), the CARBEC features a unique unidirectional carbon fiber body where the strands run vertically through the barrel. This allows your sound wave to travel exceptionally fast and clean, resulting in an insanely quick response and immediate articulation. To add maximum acoustic complexity back into your tone, this "Double Resonator" model features two specialized metal resonating rings located at both transition boundaries—where the barrel meets the mouthpiece and where it meets the upper joint. While the carbon fiber creates a neutral, highly efficient core, the dual metal rings act as reflectors, adding an abundance of rich harmonics, a beautiful "ping," and brilliant projection to the edges of your sound.
Key Features:
-
Unidirectional Carbon Fiber: Unlike standard woven carbon fiber, the vertical strands allow vibrations to pass through incredibly fast, offering a warm, elegant sound with flawless pitch stability.
-
Dual Metal Resonators: Features two meticulously crafted metal rings (available in silver plate, yellow gold plate, or rose gold plating) at both ends of the barrel that reflect energy, adding rich harmonics, superior projection, and a brilliant shimmer to your tone.
-
Lightning-Fast Articulation: The highly efficient carbon fiber material drastically improves your response, making fast staccato passages and difficult leaps feel completely effortless.
-
Professional Fit: Crafted in Italy and designed to seamlessly fit most standard French-bore Bb and A clarinets (including Buffet Crampon, Selmer, Backun, and most Yamaha models).
