 Why clarinets so expensive now
Author: ChuChu 
Date:   2023-02-25 18:10

Every major clarinet manufacturer it seems wants 8,000-10,000 dollars for their Bb and A clarinets. There is a serious problem here. These clarinets can't cost that much to make. I am tired of seeing these prices. I don't want to bankrupt myself trying to buy a good pro clarinet. I also fear buying a clarinet at these prices as many fail due to cracks or other problems. It cannot cost this much because of exchange rates in the USA as prices are high all over the world. It makes me much less hesitant of even thinking about buying clarinets. This is definitely some sort of a rip-off money making scheme. Problem is these manufacturers like Buffet, Selmer, Yamaha, Backun don't understand economics. High prices when the demand is not very high. Something is not right here. What are your thoughts on this trend?
