You are right , a better mouthpiece will make a plastic clarinet sound jus=
t that
much more better. But keep in mind that to go out and buy a $40 mouthpiece=
for a
beginner is slightly dangerous because there's that chance that the person=
will
drop it ( crash, chipped). Then you have a very sad kid, whose parent says=
that
they can't afford to buy 40 dollar mouthpieces all the time.... etc. It's =
no
ones fault, it's just that you have to realize that there's a good chance =
the
beginning student ( even with all the warnings from a teacher) can drop a
mouthpiece.

There's a good reason it is this way.
