They're good players for what they are and may even put some pro level A clarinets to shame. I had one a while back stencilled Selmer Sterling which was made in the '50s (paired with a Centered Tone Bb of the same age) and while it didn't command much in terms of resale value (I sold it for the same cost of a basic overhaul), it was a nice player. I even cobbled together a single case for it rather than selling it without one.
