Well my perspective is a little different I guess. I believe that you'll never regret buying a great clarinet. The step up idea just doesn't stand up economically. If you buy a "cheaper" horn then wind up buying a more expensive one later, you will pay even more for the expensive horn (inflation) and still have bought two clarinets when you could have bought the one you really want first. Still, I agree with the person who said you should get a cheap plastic clarinet for outdoor work, especially if it is marching, etc. I remember talking to a guy who played in a military band and said he never changed the reed on his marching clarinet in 10 years and half the time didn't play, just moved his fingers as he marched. The situation is different if people are actually hearing you, needless to say I guess.
