I bought the clarinet due to its low price, it was my dream to have one since forever. I was expecting something of less quality due to the price but oh was i surprised. It went beyond my expectations, starting with the amazingly high quality carrying case, along with the fine quality of the clarinet itself; the little cork pieces on the keys of the instrument where an addon i really loved.
Professional players shouldnt buy this, we that want to learn should, totally and absolutely obtain one.
Congrats to you buyers, and if you are thinking about buying one think no more, hear my suggestion and get it. |
Incredible quality for the price

| Clearly this is not a professional-quality instrument, but wow for around $100 you'd be amazed at how nicely made this is. The sound is rich in timbre, much more so that you'd expect. My now 10-yr-old daughter has had for exactly a year (got for Christmas '07) and loves it! |
So far, so good.

| I am very happy that I decided to buy rather than rent. It came out to the same price (for 1 year). I had the music teacher look it over as soon as we got it, and he said it was great. This is for a 4th grade beginning student. I made sure that we could get service for it in our nearby area. So far (3 months), a great product! |
Plastic and cheap!

I ordered this for my eleven year old daughter because she is starting 6th grade and the school only provides loaner instruments to the lower grades. It came quickly, but what came was a Simba brand model CL-200 Clarinet. I admit that my daughter knows more about these things than I do becuse she has been taking clarinet for two years in school, but it looks to be a pretty cheaply made piece of plastic. Little more than a toy. My daughter says it is certainly useable, but not near the quality the school provided to her in 4th and 5th grade.
I don't know what planet this thing would be worth what the ad claims to be the list price, the Amazon price (about 40% of list) is more reasonable.
In the end; I guess you get what you pay for. |
Good Starter Instrument
