My first clarinet was a metal clarinet, a "Cavalier" .......made in Elkhart,
Indiana. My dad bought it for me in 1961. Probably paid $50 or less.
I know because I'm looking at it right now. A few months ago I retrieved it
from my Mom's house, where it had sat untouched for 30+ years. I'm going to
repad and overhaul, and see what it sounds like.
I also have another Cavalier, and two Regents, made by the Ohio Band
Instrument Company in Cleveland Ohio. Such wealth!
