Re: E11 and internediate clarinets

Go try it. All the comments generalizing E11s from Germany, France, or the moon as bad or not worth the money are ridiculous - they're dumb comments. My E11 took me through college where I played in the wind symphony, subbed in one of the orchestras, and frankly, it did me quite well. There are good E11s out there. But you really need to go try it because there are horrible E11s out there just like there are horrible R13s out there. When I bought my R13 I tried about a dozen instruments and I remember at least three that were so bad I had trouble making certain notes sound. One was so awful that I thought it might be my setup so I took another instrument out, played a few notes to make sure it wasn't me, tried it again, and finally gave it back to the salesman and told him they needed to take a look at that horn or send it back to Buffet.

So go give it a whirl and let us know how it goes!
