NIB = New In Box (As opposed to a refurbished instrument)

My recommendation would be the Arioso B-flat, Ridenour Tr-147 or Forte clarinet, each a well built, and solid instrument.

The Ridenour TR-147 is virtually identical to my (much more expensive) leBlanc Opus in playing character. The TR-147 and Arioso are made in Hard rubber much like the Jupiter or Buffet B-12.

For what it's worth, I would NOT spend more than $500 on a beginning player's instrument; too many young players abandon the instrument early.

Resale value of beginner's clarinets is VERY low.
