My experience with WWBW- I bought a set of Howarth
clarinets which I LOVE. They had them available
used- presumably someone traded them in as I don't
think they've ever carried them. They were as
advertised and in good playing condition. Price
did play a part in my decision- as I couldn't have
afforded a new set of Howarths at that point. More
off topic than on- I also had a wonderful
conversation with one of their repairmen after
seeing in his bio that he'd been in the Navy Band
prior to 1955. It turns out he knew and remembered
my grandfather. He took the time to talk to me
even though I wasn't buying (or repairing) at the
moment.

Take Care,
Anne
