I buy old clarinets, get them playing well, and donate them to schools. I just got this one for $10, but I think it is too "good" for a donation to a beginning 6th grader. The metal is pretty soft, the wood is beautiful, and it just seems to be much better quality than my usual find. I haven't seen one with the extra screw supporting the posts, either.

It is a Val's Artist (stencil), made in France. The only other one I have been able to find is a fully overhauled one for sale on ebay for $1,100+.
