In all three systems, the company offers the full range of clarinets from high A ♭ to low G, including basset clarinets in A, B ♭, and G, as well as an F basset horn and a B ♭ bass clarinet. All basset and bass clarinets and basset horns extend down to a low C. [ 5 ]
With the French system (Boehm) the company manufactures four models in Bb and A, with the reform Boehm system six models in Bb and A, a Bassett clarinet in Bb and A and three models in C, D and Es, as well as a basset horn in F. [3] The instruments are made to order, using grenadilla wood, on special request also from cocobolo.
Clarinet bodies have been made from a variety of materials including wood, plastic, hard rubber or Ebonite, metal, and ivory. [35] The vast majority of wooden clarinets are made from African blackwood (grenadilla), or, more uncommonly, Honduran rosewood or cocobolo. [36] [37] Historically other woods, particularly boxwood and ebony, were used. [36]

The company produces almost all clarinets of the clarinet family (with the exception of the very rare double bass clarinet and the contralto clarinet). All instruments are made only of wood, mainly grenadilla wood, but also cocobolo and boxwood are available. They are made exclusively to order individually. [1]

The thumb rest was either carved from the solid wood or screwed onto the body of the instrument as a metal part. [6] The clarinetist and clarinet maker Iwan Müller is considered the inventor of the thumb rest. [7] [8] In fact, however, it was developed independently by various woodwind instrument makers.
In 2000 clarinetist and entrepreneur Morrie Backun opened a small repair shop for woodwind instruments with two employees. After having been commissioned by J. Wesley (Wes) Foster, Principal Clarinet of the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra to overhaul one of his clarinets, Backun was unable to complete the project, as the original barrel of the instrument was missing.
