It is only a beginner instrument intended for children from 5-9 years =
old. The instrument is in plastic even the keys and is very light. It =
plays perfectly in tune. Now it is possible to teach "suzukimethod" on =
the clarinet. Played by a adult clarinetplayer the soundquality is at =
the same level as other plastic clarinets. Small children plays better =
on this instrument than a pro ordenary size instrument. I've ben told =
that som jazzplayers use this instrument as a special effect. I think =
Lyons have a website but I don't remember the adress.=20
