Unboxing my new Selmer Privilege Bass Clarinet!!

[@harrycroker7077]

Never had a bass that good, but I know the thrill of getting a new instrument. Hope you love it! I’ve been playing bass for 53 years and I love everything about it. Congratulations! So nice of Michael to help you with this😀

[@DoodleBoyLovesToys]

I love that you worked with Michael. I don’t know Michael, but I watch all of his bass clarinet videos and they inspire me. So do you! Much love from Richmond, Virginia.

I inherited a Privlege low C, about 4 years ago. Those extra keys are a real challenge.

[@kulwinderkaur617]

Michael lowenstern is my favorite bass clarinet and composer in Brooklyn and I want to see him in concert in new york city this year!

[@Indiiiiii]

"it's the little things!" Pulls out a bell that's bigger than a saxophone. Next purchase Laura, baritone saxophone unboxing? :D

[@lauracampbell4528]

Very likely the next unboxing will be a tenor sax! Gotta work my way down to a bari 😉

[@HealyHQ]

The excitement is infectious!

[@kishanchouhanmusic]

Yayyyyy! Always a nice feeling getting new gear - thanks for sharing the excitement!

[@ZMaine]

$20K?!?!?!?! And I thought a $2K Trumpet was expensive!

[@Instrumentjesus]

It is lol that better be one good trumpet

[@unacarafea]

Reminds me of when I got my first bass. It was back in the middle ages before cell phone and video but the excitement was very similar!

[@randypickering5793]

So jealous Laura! But . . . it's half the cost of my truck! Nice to see your dream come true. You will have to show it off at our next VCB Zoom session. Enjoy!

[@helious74]

Wow. I just got a Yamaha 221 II. 2,500 is what paid for it I wanted Buffett bass but I just can’t due to the 13,000 for it. I’m so glad you were able to get very nice professional bass.

[@atay9051]

definitely a dream!! so excited for you:)

[@jazzyjt6181]

I’m a Bari saxophone player, but I still enjoyed this video so much.

[@melissamccoy1354]

I am getting one from Michael as we speak. This is so fun!

[@k1melise]

Ahh! So happy for you! Well deserved 🎉

[@fabiogius2451]

Yay! Really happy for you, and really envious at the same time. At the beginning I wondered if it was the "all black" model. I dream of owning a bass clarinet too…

[@Lxnorius]

me too

[@nillejoslin]

A joy to watch your joy! Let's hope the clarinet has stayed in regulation and plays as nice as it looks.

[@timdotson39]

Love your excitement! I’m sure I would be the same way. Looking forward to hearing it sing...

[@justincooper1626]

Great now let's see you play it!

[@mikesaxclar]

Beautiful! CONGRATS!

[@eliebalassaf5069]

WE WANT TO HEAR IT

[@ShaneMcFerran_]

Congratulations 👏 👏 👏

[@Ben-ig3bf]

That’s amazing!!

[@marcusclarineta]

How wonderful Laura. I'm very happy for you. Success!! Hugs!!!

[@dalelazaro4437]

I am watching from Philippines 🇵🇭

[@gwene3874]

I have a question relating to the bass, how tall are you? I’ve been looking at bass clarinets recently and I’m wondering what an appropriate height for this specific bass is. I’m not very tall so I worry about getting a bass that I can’t play lol.

[@lauracampbell4528]

Hey! I’m 5’3” and find the Selmer way more comfortable to play than the Buffets. I used to sit on a cushion when I played a tosca, but I actually need to use the peg for the Selmer rather than basically resting the bell on the floor

[@Samuel-ge7im]

Awesome video

[@markbernard4156]

YAAAAASSSSSS

[@lauracampbell4528]

SAMEEEEEEEE

[@黃冠霖-j8e]

Is this low C or bE

[@jancarlobustamante2712]

Maybe one day I’ll get one 🤑😍😍

[@lauracampbell4528]

I have no doubts you will!

[@SocietyIsUnravelling]

Not to overlook the rest of the video, but what kind of dog is that? He’s lovely.

[@lauracampbell4528]

Haha thankyou! He’s a greyhound

[@joeylabranche1014]

Damn that's not a dog it's a horse lol

[@RichJCW]

It's been unboxed a week now and still no demo....just saying.......

[@PhilipVegaR]

Girl live the dream that is my dream bass clarinet but I would like it with black keys

[@lauracampbell4528]

[@brucehumphrey5029]
