Re: Best clarinet for marching band

Well, I haven't played on much as far as marching clarinets go, but I'll at least share my story. I have a 12 year old Bundy that my brother bought for $80 when he first started playing. He marched it for two years before switching to alto sax, and then I used it all four years in high school. The things been but through countless concert seasons, 70 or so football games, at least 30 compitions, 6 band camps, and just about every weather condition imaginable (thank you NE Ohio). Not even to mention the abuse that two young and ambitious musicians have put on it. Believe it or not depsite all of that it still plays as good as it did brand new. It just goes to show that as long as you take care of it, some of those plastic horns are darn near bulletproof. Just find something that you like and keep it in shape.
