 Re: Arioso versus Allora

in regard to the Arioso/Allora clarinets:
1. Part of the Allora stock was processed by me before I left Arioso and part was just shipped out, so it's a crap shoot.
2. WWBW does not provide after point of purchase services and support and customzing and the processing we did at Arioso when I was there is not refined to the degree I do for the clarinets I personally sell. That would be too time consuming in a factory situation.
Long after WWBW is through with selling the stock they have I'll be supporting and servicing my customers throughout the years they play my clarinets.
3. The tuning of all the models from the factory is not as good as it can be made to be with really careful, knowledgeable processing. There are several areas tuning can be improved on all models, Bb, A and C, and in some cases customizing is needed due to the particular needs of a player or because of equipment concerns. Otherwise, tuning will be a struggle and an ever present irritant.
WWBW is incapable of providing any of that. Clarinetists who buy the clarinet from me get all those services and more free. So, when you compare the two clarinets you are not at all looking at apples to apples.
The first part, HR vs GW, is very much in support of your claims on the list. I really appreciate you having the guts to stick your neck out and courageously insist on the truth. I am in your debt as a consequence.
best,
Tom Ridenour
