WOW! That price for the "G. Verdi" model tops out the prices for
the *handmade* Rossi clarinets, *handmade* Chadash clarinets,
Wurlitzer clarinets with all the extra *custom features*,
*handmade* Steve Fox clarinets, and all of the Boehm/French
style manufactured models of the major brands including the new
Buffet Tosca, wich is more than the Prestige models. If I was
going to spend that kind of money, I would want the instrument
custom made for me. I'm sure this model isn't going to fly off
the shelves at that price!

The other models do look reasonably priced though. Worth a look
at ClarinetFest if they are there...
