 Re: Kessler Custom Low C Bass Clarinet - 2nd Generation

I've been playing mine for just over a year now and I've continued to be impressed. It's just a darn good instrument -- and especially for the price!~

There are, however, two issues I've had that are worth noting: (1) the screw in the mount that holds the peg basically broke and had to be replaced (with an easily available Yamaha screw of the same type, (2) the neck broke into two pieces due to insufficient welds/solders to hold it together. As a temporary solution, some crazy glue and duct tape held it together, and a replacement could be found easily on that auction site for less than $100.

It was annoying, and probably wouldn't happen on a $10,000 instrument...so while China has made great progress in making instruments, there's still some room to go!
