I would say that you could either get a used pro horn or a new Intermediate. I play a Buffet E-11, and I love it to death! I got it for like $700 ( I think, it was a gift). I think you could get a good, used pro horn for that if you looked around. Im personally biased, and I would tell anyone looking for advice to get a Buffet. This aside, you may also want to look at LeBlanc, Selmer and Yamaha. Try to stay away from lesser known brands - they can be of poor quality. Also, as someone mentioned, try The Woodwind and Brasswind catalog (www.wwandbw.com) they have pretty good prices. I got my clarinet at the local store, after trying out every clarinet in stock.(what a day that was!) The main reason I would reccomend this (the local store) is that you get a decent price, and a lot of stores will throw in some stuff with the horn. I got my choice of ligatures, a polishing cloth, a cloth for my silver keys, 2 swabs, 2 mouthpiece patches, a thumb rest cushion, and 2 boxes of Vandoren Reeds for free, and a new Vandoren B45 MP for half price as well. I thought it was a great deal! Its your call. But whatever you decide, good luck, and welcome back!!!!!!
