They probably don't produce that much more slowly than other clarinet makers. Kronthaler already has 4 employees and 2 trainees I think, but as everyone here in Germany, she's heavily affected by the "Fachkräftemangel" (a popular catchword in our media): Lack of specialists. Especially in this branch, there are either too few able and/or willing people to learn this job. If I ever become tired of dentistry, who knows... :D
But compare this to the fancy Backing website. Trial periods, prices shown for every model, a list of their artists, many options to chose from. And they've currently announced a carbon clarinet. Different business models, I guess - quality over innovation at Kronthaler?
