DrewSorensenMusic:

I totally agree that music should be able to be enjoyed by everyone. Clarinet and Sax are some of the easiest, and cheapest instruments to acquire, and it's easy to find something decent for cheap.

We have mouthpiece makers like Vandoren and many other companies that you can get a professional piece for under $100. Try finding a professional bow or head-joint for under that. A lot of percussionists spend more than that per pair of sticks.
I find it really hard to believe that anyone would have a problem with someone selling a premium product. Every piece of merchandise has a premium product.

It's like saying: everyone needs water, therefore perrier should be prohibited.
I could also say, most people drive, but to keep it cheap they should only make honda civics. They drive pretty well, and are relatively affordable.

Premium products are not for the masses, and shouldn't be. If someone wants something amazing, more often than not they will have to shell out some serious green for it. It's just the way the world works.

Let's count ourselves lucky that basically no clarinetist ever has to mortgage their house to buy an instrument necessary to move on in their carrier and end it there.

disclaimer: I am by no ways connected to Theo Wanne, nor have I ever tried this product. I just think that pushing for people to make better equipment is important, and if they cost a little more for it, then bring it on. I would pay 1000s for a perfect reed that would last me years (and sadly I haven't found it yet)
