Would it be better to get a clarinet with unstained wood? Could the reality be that the wood is freer of defects because it was chosen with the thought that the wood was not going to be covered up with stain, so the wood had to be at least cosmetically flaw free? Maybe that is the reason The Prestige and the Opus are UNSTAINED wood...go figure.
