Subj: Buying a new clarinet
Date: Wed, 22 May 1996 17:15:54 -0400

Dear Experienced Clarinettists,
I'm a beginner who's been playing for about two years now. That
doesn't sound like very long, but I'm getting much better and would like to
move past my cheap Artly. I got it for $300, and it's like a good friend,
but I would like to upgrade for my entry (hopefully) into the top high
school band. As you may understand, I have a very limited income (my life
savings is still under $400) so I'm looking for a pretty cheap, but nice,
wooden something. I have no idea what I'm doing though, so I was hoping
maybe you guys could provide some guidance for me in this clarinet
purchasing endeavor. Oh yeah, I'm looking for a Bb instrument.

Thanks in advance,
Laura Hatfield
