The "Overture" by Bradford Behn is only $35 and plays quite well.

If you can swing $50-75, you could get a D'Addario XO used from that auction site.

Both would serve you well.

Hite Premiere or Fobes Debut. About 35 dollars new at your local "brick and mortar" store. IMHO, if you find a really good one, the Hite is the better of the two ... warmer, nicer sound.

If you can find a good used one at a good price, the Vandoren M13 is a really good choice. We have a couple of clarinet teachers in our area that insists that young students mostly use the M13, so the local dealer stocks several dozen for me to inspect (and making them crazy) before trying, buying and adding to my collection. Of course, a visual inspection does not always indicate how well a MP will play, but I have found that it generally helps.
