 RE: Do plastic clarinets have better tone?

It sounds inane but there is probably a tiny bit of logic in what your friend said (I doubt she is aware of it, however).

I suspect that if the objective is to make a very inexpensive (student) clarinet, a better one can be made of plastic then wood for the same amount of money. The plastic is less expensive than the wood and probably less labor is required. Therefore, more can be invested in the keywork and other features.
