Key Features
The Selmer Paris Présence Delta Bb Clarinet is a versatile professional instrument for players who need reliable performance across a wide range of musical settings. Crafted from FSC-certified grenadilla wood, it produces a rich, balanced tone with an easy-blowing response that suits solo, chamber, orchestral, and band repertoire. The redesigned bell improves resonance and tonal balance, while the Evolution system uses an internal resin lining to increase stability and protect the wood from moisture without affecting its acoustic character.
A lighter design improves playing comfort, complemented by durable Gore-Tex and Valentino pads for consistent key action. Two supplied barrels let you adapt to different tuning requirements, while the included Echo mouthpiece completes a performance-ready package. Finished with silver-plated keywork and supplied in a refined case, the Présence Delta combines traditional craftsmanship with practical modern refinements.

The Evolution system brings added confidence to everyday playing by incorporating a new-generation resin lining inside the upper joint. This helps improve long-term stability, protects the wood against moisture, and increases durability while preserving the natural acoustic qualities of grenadilla. Combined with FSC-certified grenadilla construction, the clarinet retains the warm, rich character expected from a traditional wooden instrument while benefiting from modern manufacturing advances that support consistent performance in changing conditions.
The Présence Delta delivers the rich tone and free-blowing response that define the series, with subtle acoustic refinements to enhance overall performance. A redesigned bell improves tonal balance and resonance, helping notes speak evenly throughout the range. Its polycylindrical bore supports a focused, consistent sound, while the supplied 64.5 mm and 65.5 mm barrels allow you to adapt the instrument to different tuning preferences and performance environments.
A lighter overall design makes the Présence Delta more comfortable during rehearsals, performances, and extended practice sessions. Wider rings contribute to improved ergonomics, while the adjustable thumb rest helps you find a comfortable hand position. Gore-Tex and Valentino pads provide reliable sealing and precise key action with excellent durability, supporting smooth, dependable performance whether you're practising daily or performing regularly.
The Présence Delta arrives with everything needed to get started straight away. An Echo Bb clarinet mouthpiece offers a responsive playing experience, complemented by a silver-plated ligature and mouthpiece cap. Two interchangeable barrels provide additional flexibility, while cork grease, a swab, and a soft cloth help with routine maintenance. Everything packs neatly into the supplied single case with matching pouch for secure transport and storage.
