 Starting up again

There seems to be a lot of knowlege on this forum so I thought I would ask for some insight and help. I am 62 and dedicded to get my old H.S./College days clarinet refurbished. It is a Selmer Signet Soloist. Now that I have it back completely repaded I noticed that when I play the open G it sounds airy to me. I believe that there is no air leaks because of the instrument being completely refurburished. Is there anything I can do to get back to playing the instrument without the airy sound? Also is this a good quality instrument to start playing again? I will probably keep it for awhile after spending $325 on it unless someone tells me it is a very difficult instrument to play. Any help is much appreciated.
