***Just a follow up, October 2019. Son is STILL using this clarinet as his main instrument--swears that this instrument plays better than the clarinets the school rents out to students, etc. Not one thing has been out of place on the clarinet--no repairs have been needed, everything is great.
**** Another follow up, about a month after the above. A pad or two came loose from the keys. Brought the clarinet in to the local grandmaster instrument repair guy. He fixed it right up--told me the pads aren't great on the Mendini's anyway. Everything else was fine, he was surprised at how nicely the instrument plays. If I could do this whole thing over, I'd buy my son this instrument again as his first instrument. No question.
If you're concerned on quality for your student player, just get this! You won't regret it.
