German Craftsmanship meets French Tradition
For generations, Uebel has united German craftsmanship with the rich tradition of the French clarinet. Carefully refined acoustics, exceptional response, accurate intonation, and comfortable ergonomics come together to create instruments trusted by students, teachers, and professional artists around the world. At the heart of every Uebel clarinet lies naturally aged tonewood. Selected woods are stored and seasoned for more than ten years before being crafted into professional instruments, allowing them to develop the stability, resonance, and character that define the Uebel sound. Combined with our distinctive bore design and generations of craftsmanship, this dedication creates instruments known for their warmth, depth, reliability, and musical flexibility. The result is more than a beautiful sound. It is an instrument built to accompany musicians throughout every stage of their musical journey.
B♭/A clarinet Rêve
B♭/A clarinet Zenit
The “Zenit”, with its beautiful, lush and resonant tone, combines depth of sound and power with a sweetness and flexibility that is simply mesmerizing. Its sophisticated intonation, facile key work and aesthetic beauty, are simply attributes that make Zenit the pinnacle of artistic expression.
Zenit AC
The Zenit artist model with the double vent mechanism offers even more perfected twelfths and an extra tonal depth that will delight clarinettists, inviting them to pursue new artistic heights.
B♭/A clarinet Vision
The VISION clarinet model excels in satisfying the musical demands that are essential to reach the highest artistic endeavors. It has a deep, yet clear tone, powerful projection with gentle coloration, and great flexibility with peerless evenness and security. Its tonal and mechanical features invites a panoramic view of artistic choices.
T-, D- and U-Barrel
Two voices. One philosophy.
Sound has never had only one answer.
Every musician imagines sound differently. Some seek warmth, depth, and subtle tonal shading; others pursue brilliance, projection, and immediate response. With the introduction of the T- and D-Barrel, F. Arthur Uebel presents two distinct tonal concepts, each developed with the same commitment to craftsmanship, precision, and musical expression.
Timbre · Celestial colours
A richer palette of tone colors and harmonic depth. Warm, refined, and expressive, Timbre is designed for players who seek greater nuance, elegance, and a naturally singing sound.
Dazzler · Vitaly
Responsive, vibrant, and full of energy, Dazzler delivers quick articulation, lively resonance, and brilliant projection. Designed for musicians who want an immediate response and a confident, powerful presence.
Universal · Where versatility meets craftsmanship
Musical expression begins with freedom — the freedom to shape every phrase, every color, and every nuance. Created in collaboration with renowned clarinetist Ricardo Morales and F. Arthur Uebel, the U-Barrel was developed to give performers exactly that: greater flexibility, broader expressive possibilities, and complete confidence across every musical setting.
Designed for exceptional versatility, the U-Barrel opens up a rich spectrum of tonal colors while responding naturally to the individual character of both player and instrument. Whether performing chamber music, orchestral repertoire, or solo works, it delivers remarkable balance, warmth, projection, and control.
Features barrel collection
In collaboration with renowned clarinetist Ricardo Morales and F. Arthur Uebel, the U-Barrel was created—an innovation that elevates sound and expressive possibilities to a whole new level.
Designed for exceptional flexibility, it unlocks a spectrum of tonal nuances and effortlessly adapts to a wide range of musical demands. Crafted from the finest Grenadilla, Mopane, and Cocobolo wood, each U-Barrel embodies the highest level of artisanal precision. Its meticulously designed bore and elegant shape ensure outstanding tonal richness and projection. A finely inlaid sterling silver “U” underscores the exceptional quality of this masterpiece.
Available in lengths ranging from 62 mm to 68 mm, the U-Barrel allows for precise customization to suit various clarinet models and playing styles. While it is perfectly tailored for F. Arthur Uebel clarinets, it also enhances instruments from other manufacturers with greater resonance, warmth, and expressive depth.
Unleash your full musical voice—with the U-Barrel from F. Arthur Uebel.
B♭/A clarinet Unity
Different Traditions. One Commitment.
Introducing the Unity Series Clarinets | Celebrating 90 Years of Uebel
For centuries, the development of the clarinet has given rise to two iconic traditions. One carries the rich heritage of the German school. The other has shaped the worldwide influence of the French school. They differ in structure, differ in musical language, and each has inspired generations of devoted players. At Uebel, we believe that true innovation begins with respect for tradition. As we celebrate our 90th anniversary, Uebel is proud to introduce the new Unity Series Clarinets, featuring the Uebel Enhanced Boehm Mechanism. Unity was not created to change tradition. Instead, it reconsiders every detail that shapes the playing experience while remaining firmly rooted in the French system.
Intonation. Resonance. Ergonomics. Technical fluidity.
We have always believed that genuine innovation is not about changing what players already know and trust, but about making performance feel more natural, stable, and effortless. That is how Unity was born. Preserving the core spirit of the French system, Unity incorporates the Uebel Enhanced Boehm Mechanism and introduces refinements to multiple key elements of the instrument. It does not redefine tradition—it allows tradition to become even more complete.
B♭/A clarinet Superior II
The Superior II enjoys many of the successful features of the Superior design, such as wonderful presence and projection, and adds some special characteristics of its own. Its black carbon fiber rings make the clarinet lighter and more resonant, and also has unique bore variation to combine freedom with stability in an ideal way.
Basset horn Superior in F
Musical luminaries such as Mozart, Mendelssohn, Strauss, Boulez, and Stockhausen deserve recognition for their inspired compositions. To this end, the Uebel Superior Basset Horn was designed with such smoothness of tone and precise intonation that it transforms the perception of the instrument itself. It is not merely an auxiliary instrument, but a tool for expression of the highest caliber.
Zenit Basset Clarinet in A
The Zenit Basset shares the beautiful, lush and sweet sound qualities of the Zenit line. It is the ideal instrument to facilitate the artistic and technical demands that repertoire such as Mozart’s sublime Concerto inspire. The basset lower joint is also available separately and can be used with the regular Zenit A clarinet. F. Arthur Uebel recognizes that artistic freedom and personality are essential for the discerning musician. The Zenit and Romanza models offer two unique barrel styles that invite color exploration. Traditional– the regular barrel showcases the standard artistic features expected of all F. Arthur Uebel clarinets, clarity, flexibility and a singing quality. Thick barrel – designed for the player that wishes to have a more robust, powerful and deep tone, without sacrificing response.
Bass Clarinet Zenit
The Zenit Bass Clarinet combines F. Arthur Uebel’s renowned craftsmanship with innovative acoustical engineering. Its advanced Zenit bore produces a focused, resonant sound with remarkable depth, warmth, and projection throughout the full range to low C.
Crafted from carefully selected Grenadilla or Mopane wood, naturally seasoned for over ten years to ensure exceptional stability and tonal character, the Zenit Bass offers exceptional response and tonal consistency. Combined with an advanced Bb mechanism, an integrated three-stage register key system, refined ergonomics, and a dual low-Eb and low-D key design, it provides effortless control, smooth register transitions, and outstanding playing comfort.
