Along the lines of Tony F, I didn't buy anything for myself, but I built a 'new' horn. After several years of gathering Kohlert bass clarinet parts (separate upper and lower joints with some keys missing; a neck; a bell; and eventually all the missing keys), I put together a really nice bass clarinet, using every trick I know to make it play better than the stock horns. It might just be the best-playing bass clarinet I've ever had. A fine end to an otherwise crummy year!
By the way, happy new year everyone, may 2017 be orders of magnitude better than 2016
