After some trying and searching, I've finally bought a Yamaha CSGIII. It seems to be a great horn, altough it will be the time that decides. I'm still getting used to the slightly different style (it's hybrid: boehm system but German(ish) bore).
The instrument itself intonates pretty well, although I have a few problems. The C5 note is very sharp. Can it be corrected somehow? I tried it with my previous clarinet, an E11 and the intonation is fine there.
My other problem is that the E4, F4 and F#4 notes are, somehow unstable. As if there was some fluid somewhere, but actually there isn't. This latter is not a great problem, the notes are pretty nice and well intonated, also I do not really think it can be really heard from a few metres, but still bothers me. I may go back to the shop with it.
As I mentioned, the horn is relatively new (less than 2 months old), I still only play 15-20 minutes a day, no more.
It might be my mouthpiece, although on the E11 it's fine. I play a Kückmeyer Solist M.
Otherwise I love the Yamaha - I still can't believe I have one :D
