Paul:
Sounding "like Benny Goodman" is the last thing I would want to do. He was then. This is now. Besides, beyond Benny's obvious clarinet-playing skill I never cared much for his tone or soloing. (Nothing personal, Benny. RIP)
The only reason I mentioned Backun was to keep the focus of the thread on Selmer. There seems to be such a groundswell of enthusiasm for Backun products I thought someone might suggest one as an alternative.
When all is said and done, top professional horns are so expensive today that unless you earn your living playing clarinet and can write off your instruments as a business expense, they are out of the question for many of us.
Used Selmers are perhaps another story. They're possibly more affordable for us nonprofessional players. But there is much to learn about the different models that were produced through the years.
Thanks for the input, everybody!
B.
