Re: LeBlanc Soloist info

Are you sure it's not a Selmer Soloist? That model designation has long been used by Selmer.

Leblanc has introduced it's own student line called "leblanc soloist." although i can't comment on it's playing ability, it looks like a beginner, plastic instrument with leblanc keywork. i'm sure with technology getting better and quality control becoming tighter, that you really don't have much to lose as it is a production model from leblanc. leblanc has been around the businesses for many years, and really can't afford to have a negative reputation if it's going to compete against selmer, buffet, yamaha.

leaders stay in front due to consistency, quality, and efficiency.

at $99 it's not a bad price. but you can get a quality wood clarinet: selmer soloist for 75% more.
