Yamaha YCL 221 III versus Ridenour RCP-925e

Hi All,

I may need to upgrade my bass clarinet as the concert band I play in has asked me to slide over to the BC. While I have two OK instruments, I really need to to find an instrument that is well in tune above all.

The Ridenour seems to fit the bill nicely; however, I have seen A 442 problems mentioned with the Yamaha as well as a few tuning issues but I have played a couple of these instruments and they really are quite nice. I am not interested in a low C instrument and do not really want to drop $9-10K for a pro model.

Does any one have any current experience with either of these two instruments/

Thanks

HRL
