Jack, this is not only about Chadash's clarinets but it would apply to anything like this. If you ask a manufacture to send you the names of people that bought their product so you can ask them their opinion they will only send you the names of those that are satisfied, not the ones that aren't or those that had problems.
Personally, I won't ever order a custom made instrument because I want to be able to try them out before I purchase them. I prefer to be able to try 6 to 10 to pick the one I like best not to assume the manufacture knows what I want and can make one perfectly for me. There is no such thing as a perfect clarinet, they're all slightly different no matter who makes them. That's just me though, there are players that have done that with several custom clarinet manufactures and have been very pleased, but then there are those that are not so happy. At least if you live close enough to the manufactures place of business, NY in Chadash's case, you can keep going back until he get's it the way you want it, if that's even possible in all cases.
I feel the same way about sending my clarinets for overhauls, I want to be there to pick it up and play it so before I leave the shop, it's exactly the way I want it to play, not the repair person. Each to our own. ESP http://eddiesclarinet.com
