awildman,
Well, it does seem like our points don't differ that much, actually.
But I'm still sceptical whether a) there are factories that make ebonite clarinets with forged keys and b) a better quality product from China wouldn't still be cheaper than an Yamaha/Buffet ABS clarinet.
I was going to post a long text, but in short, what I'd wish is an instrument coming from one factory with on-site design and QC. It wouldn't be important where it's from, as long as it plays well. Buffet's approach has always been to outsource, whether to Germany for making keys or now to China for finishing the product (as the bodies are drilled in France by their better machines). I cannot determine whether the latter affects quality, as any Buffet nowadays is not completely made in France, this doesn't matter anyways. A clarinet is no high tech product and what counts ist having someone check the intonation and make sure the keywork is smooth. This is why I don't see any benefit in the Buffet or Schreiber approach when taking a look at their instruments! Shame, because CAD-clarinet bodies are an excellent idea!
