An instrument descended from heaven. Forged by God himself in the fires of Mt. Buffet with wood taken from the trees of the Garden of Eden, it is said that when one such instrument is played, storms dissipate and seas are calmed. In the hands of an expert, the Bass Clarinet's power can be weaponized, calling in lightning to crash down upon his enemies.

The Bass Clarinet is the coolest clarinet that exists. It's shape was adopted and used in the saxophone. It has an awesome low tone, and is generally better then Soprano Clarinet

It's like a clarinet and saxaphone put together. It is 900 decatrillion times better than a ordinary soprano clarinet (the most common clarinet, the one you start off with before the bass). The Bass Clarinet is ballin. Freakin wayyy better. I don't know you, but some people that are insane about it say it's "The Sexiest Instrument Ever!". I'd say it is the sexiest instrument too because of it's elegent design.
It also has a beastly sound dude. No kidding man. The Bass Clarinet is the Beast overall!
The clarinet is bull. It's too old school. Not enough "Manlyness".

"This bass instrument of the Clarinet family is usually played by people who suck on regular Clarinet and therefore also naturally suck on Bass Clarinet. No one can ever hear them so who cares if they play? Usually mess up the simplest of things such as whole notes especially when they are exposed. Along with the Alto Clarinet it is often used by good clarinet players to get into District, State, and other Various Honor Bands. Some are whiney and complain that they can't march but it dosen't matter becasue they don't know how to play anyways. Rarley a Bari Sax player will have to doubble on Bass Clarinet for Jazz band."
"Hey! The concert was great even though the onlything I could hear from the Bass Clarinets were their Squeakes."

The best damn instrument in the whole band. Way better than a clarinet. Usually plays the same music as the tubas.
Woah, I really respect that guy, even though hes in the band he still plays the most awsomeest instrument, the bass clarinet.

100 million times better than the clarinet. Looks like a saxaphone, but better. A heavy instrument that requires harness or neckstrap. reletive of the clarinet.
