*Ahem*
Concerning the E-11 that I posted for sale earlier, many people responded
with letters than a new one is available for only a little over $500. Were
clarinets more expensive in previous years? I had suspected the price was
true but I was mislead by a music store into believing that it was worth
much more. I didn't buy it from them, though, they kind of estimated its
value when I brought it in for servicing. Oh, and looking over my ad I
realized I made a mistake concerning the oiling of the thing, its every two
months, not twice every month. Sorry about that. I will try to sell it
locally. However, the clarinet is still being offered at $226 plus
shipping. Gee, a new plastic clarinet costs that much. Oh well. Thanks
for whomever e-mailed me to point out the errors. The serial number is
312134, which places its manufacture in 1988.
