Must it be a new clarinet? If you explore used/refurbished clarinets your options expand exponentially.

You might want to check out the Lyrique Bb Custom RCP-576bc Model.
It's a PRO model and costs about $1000 brand new:

And the Lyrique is a helluva better instrument than the E11!

The Noblet 40-45. slightly used I found is my best player now beating out my Selmer CT for ease of playing, tonal quality and pitch. TRy one, Don

Thanx, Mark, Don
