Most manufacturers will replace a cracked joint within the first 6
months, if the customer wishes. The second 6 months, the joint will be
pinned.
I have not had the opportunity to see the new Buffet "Green"
clarinet. If wood particles are mixed with a resin would the
instrument be classified as plastic, wood, or something totally new?
Does the instrument "feel" like wood or plastic? I would be interested
to know how the instrument plays and sounds. Please let me know.

Thanks you,
