Re: Selmer Bundy and other cheap bass clarinets

From what I know, the Jupiter is a descendant or close cousin of the Yamaha 220 (which in turn is based on a Leblanc design).

Just how much an improvement the 221 over the 220 is I cannot say.

I think it is safe to say that the Yamaha retains its resale value better than the Jupiter.

I've never been a huge fan of the plastic Yamahas, they're certainly high quality and all, but I never grew fond of them. So I'm certainly biased in some way or other.
