If you get a good Protege, you'll do fine. But I'd stay away from any material other than blackwood (and maybe hard rubber), mainly because the horns don't look like what people are used to, regardless of how well they sound.
Colleagues and directors hear through their eyes as well as their ears, and especially in ensembles, you're liable to be dinged in one way or another for playing an instrument that looks different from what's around you.
The same often goes for the model of clarinet you play too, so you may want to stick with the main line models.
These are, and have been, true even in some very prestigious groups over the decades.
