 Re: Have to buy an A Clarinet...

I did consider the YCL CSVRA. In fact, my music store also has one. However, the priority for an A clarinet is really low for me. I'll only play it for the school orchestra. I would really like to join a Youth Symphony Orchestra but because i'm taking 5 AP/H classes for my sophomore year, I really don't have the time. Maybe when I get to college, I'll buy a professional A.

I also don't want to want to say that the Buffet A is a bad clarinet. In fact, i believe that a professional can play it. After a quick web search, I found out that my clarinet was made in 1962. Something around the gold era clarinet which is a possibility that it plays so well.

I also want to note that this clarinet looks JACKED up. Almost all the plating is gone, the bell's female tenon feels very rough. Honestly, when I played this horn, I was rather shocked and surprised. I don't have much experience with A clarinets. I know that they are often more "resistant" than their Bb counterpart but wow... this thing just plays.

If Buffet improves their quality control over the next couple of years, I just might have to reconsider which A clarinet to get.
