 Re: Buying a Vintage instrument: Pro's or just cons?

I like working and playing on newer clarinets. The wood on some old clarinets can be fragile. Keys get worn and sometimes need rebuilding. Older clarinets tend to be too free-blowing for me. If a clarinet has spent most of it's years in a closet these issues may not apply. And these are generalizations. Any specific instrument may not have these issues. That being said, I work on plenty of older clarinets and they can be fine instruments.
