Seeking opinions on the potential of Thibouville clarinets, in particular their "CONCERT" model (that is the model name). Specifically, intonation.

Decent intermediate clarinets, kind of clunky but rugged, have straight toneholes and benefit greatly (from both the intonation and response standpoints) from 'aftermarket' undercutting. Roughly comparable to Noblet and Selmer Signet in feel and playing qualities. Their predecessors, the pre-1930 Jerome Thibouville-Lamy (JTL) clarinets were true professional-grade instruments, much more refined and beautifully made.
