The Leblanc Bliss L210S clarinet (came on the market in November 2011) is challenging preconceived notions of what an affordable wood clarinet can and should be. After nearly 18 months of mechanical and acoustical refinement, the design of the Bliss L210S clarinet combines new keywork, the most advanced manufacturing technology and innovative acoustical techniques. The result is a clarinet that is anything but ordinary.

  Even if this clarinet has been manufactured in U.S.A., it has been design for the European market. It's an advanced student instrument in the range of a Buffet E11 or E13. With this instrument, you'll be able to play perfectly in tune … no other manufacturer has at this day brought a more accurate instrument than this one in this price range.

The Bliss L210S is constructed with the highest quality, unstained Grenadilla and cut on the most advanced 9 axis Computer Numerically Controlled (CNC) machine in the industry. Barrels are free blowing with immediate response, aiding in tone production and articulation. The Bliss tone hole design provides superior intonation and response well as easier placement of the fingers.


The fully adjustable thumbrest features locking mechanism to prevent slipping. The set position of the neck strap ring ensures perfect playing position while offering excellent support. All trill keys are in-line, above the water line to prevent water in the keys. The pre-compressed felt bumpers replace ordinary cork for a better feel and longer wear.
 The reinforcement bar helps the long, lower keys stay in adjustment when assembling and disassembling the clarinet.

"I know I can pick up any Bliss clarinet and be able to perform at the level to which I am accustomed."
