Yamaha YCL-64

I've been playing for about 8 years on an old plastic Bundy Bb clarinet and I'm convinced that the quality of the instrument (or lack thereof) is limiting my advancement. Im not such a die-hard clarinetist that I'm willing to spend much on a new instrument ($1200 is my current ceiling), which I suspect rules out the more popular/high quality instruments such as Selmer and Buffet. I have however, found a great deal on a new Yamaha YCL-64 Bb wood clarinet (quoted $1100) which is extremely tempting. Can anyone who has played Yamaha's instruments comment on their overall quality (stand-alone and compared to other brands)? Are there any "negative" qualities in Yamaha's clarinets? Thanks
