Yamaha YCL-221 II or Ridenour Lyrique 925e to low Eb?

Im a freshmen in high school who needs a new bass clarinet. Im currently using the schools wooden Buffet, but its very old, cracked, in need of repairs. I got it repaired but within a couple of weeks it needed another repair, so Id like to to just have my own since I plan on going into college on Bass Clarinet and hopefully professionally. I'm stuck between these two brands. I havent heard a single bad thing about the Yamaha, but it is only a student model. The Tom Ridenour one seems to have a double register key, and an Ab/Eb key and an adjustable neck, but Ive only heard one person mention this horn and he said it was a good horn. I do have two solos this year, one of them in the high register. (The highest note being G above the staff) Also, anyone recommend a good mouthpiece? Thanks.
