Agree. Sounds like it will work out great for you. Maybe a lot of our problems are caused these days by just running out and buying a kid whatever they want OR think they need. On the other hand buying a good quality instrument in the first place avoids an UNnecessary battle, fighting a clarinet that is bad or setup bad, etc. Sorry for the soapbox.

Agree. Sounds like no matter what happened you "wouldn't have spilled any", etc.
