Yonkers, NY -- beginner questions

Hi Everybody,

A friend of mine in Yonkers, NY is trying to get her daughter started in private school band, and presented me with some questions that I can't answer. I recommended that she visit Weiner in Mineola, but it's too long a haul for her. The questions are:

1 - Are LJ Hutchen clarinets a decent instrument or another CSO like First Act?

2 - Rentals by Paul Effman Music. Are exchanges possible if 10 year old girl has problems with huge tone holes?

3 - Has anyone had experiences with Bach clarinets? I've never heard of them and couldn't find them. A Selmer product, I presume?

4 - In the Yonkers area, who would that parent best go to for honest and competent help?

Here in Richmond, all our rentals are by Music & Art, and are on a monthly basis with exchanges permitted. But in NY, their policies appear to be more like Effman's.
