Hi Jacqueline,

According to the latest Woodwind and Brasswind catalog, the current list price of the
Noblet Model 45C is $2450. WW&BW's catalog (street) price is $1,369. I am not aware
that Buffet or Selmer make an intermediate model C clarinet. I believe that "list"
price on their professional models is now over $4,000!

Best regards,
Jack
