Re: LeBlanc Bliss L210 for high schooler?

I've had a few private students on the LB210 (the grenadilla wood model of the Bliss lineup, designed by Backun).

I always felt that this particular model was vastly underrated, and at the price point that many of my students found it for sale ($1000-$1200 for store demos or used) it was the equal of many a "professional" clarinet. In one instance, a LB210 sounded and responded better than several Buffet R-13's, Yamaha YCL-650's, and others that we compared it to.

I'd recommend speaking with her private instructor to ensure her mouthpiece/reed setup is all good (since that makes a bigger difference than the instrument), and she should be all good from there!
