A clarinet line that makes customized, hand-tuned instruments accessible for all players!
The Pereira Custom clarinet line was carefully developed after experiencing instrument prices rising every year. They're made to sing in symphony orchestras, pit orchestras, and bands. Still, they can be used in marching band and other outdoor situations as well, since the materials are NOT susceptible to cracking or changing over time. I designed each instrument with the following points in mind:
- The Pereira Custom Eb Alto Clarinet features a composite body that does not crack or change due to temperature or humidity factors, does not require a break-in process, and can even be used in dry/cold weather playing situations
- The body is extensively hand-finished and voiced to sound, tune, and respond at professional standards
- All Pereira Custom Alto Clarinets come with an integrated Neckpiece (also known as a Resonator on bass clarinets) standard and already installed
- The keywork and posts feature thicker silver plating, so the keys are extremely durable and not at all pliable
- Being a less-popular instrument voice where some may not yet have a mouthpiece, you can choose to add on a mouthpiece/ligature set
These instruments feature leather pads, which are long-lasting and allow for a warm sound with seamless legato. The 3D Blackwood Neckpiece (overlays) adds a notable amount of fullness and depth to the sound versus the stock metal neck. In addition, aside from the sitting peg that's included, there are two neck strap/harness loops mounted at different parts of the body to find your preference. It also comes with a backpack-style case with a flap to hide the carrying straps if preferred.
All Pereira Custom Clarinets come with a 2-year shop warranty. For those who add on the mouthpiece/ligature set, the mouthpiece is a plastic copy of a Vandoren B40. The ligature is a black Pereira 3D Series 1 Alto Clarinet ligature (other ligature colors are available if you reach out via the contact page or put a note on your order!).
