Subj: Re: How much should I pay for a nice metal clarinet?
Date: Tue, 15 Mar 1994 21:54:15 -0500

I personally wouldn't pay over $100 for a metal clarinet. I do have
a metal clarinet that i purchased at the local Sal Army. I got the price
down to $20 from $100. I had to convince the person that it wa not a valuable
instrument. She thought that all people still played on these horns, and
that it was a valuable antique... Oh was that a conversation!!!
Anyway, I am drifting here...

I did use the instrument as a final project for my ww repair
class. It needed a _lot_ of work. I haven't decided what to do with
it yet. It actually dosn't sound that bad with my Bay mp and a decent
reed. It may become a lamp yet.......

Just another 2 cents....
