Chadash Clarinets

Dear Forum Members,

I can only say that I will never buy Chadash again and I urge all forum
members to do the same - this vendor sold me an A clarinet swearing that
the wood is 'So mature' that it 'is just beautiful', it is 'Perfect' and when
asked about cracking of his clarinet he declared the wood is 'so Mature' is
almost never cracks - this was November 2014, three weeks later the upper
joint has a serious crack! I return the instrument to Mr. Chadash and he
pinned it declaring it is 'Perfect'. I indicated to Mr. Chadash that the
re-sale value of the instrument has been cut by 2/3 he agreed to send me a
new replacement upper joint as is his "policy' - he outrightly refused to
refund my sale despite his website guarantees. Eventually Mr Chadash sends
me a 'new upper joint' that I received today - on inspection of this joint
I see that it has been pinned and is far from 'new'. I have no idea what
Mr. Chadash is thinking but this is not the behavior of a reputable
clarinet maker or dealer. As far as all Chadash products go I urge all
forum member to be 'Buyer Beware'

Very Respectfully to All
