10 clarinets already! And you haven't played them?! You have a lot of fun in store! I agree with the others that you should take your first steps guided by a treacher, but I don't think it's *impossible* to teach yourself right from the get-go. That's what I did. If I had begun with the teacher I had, very briefly, later on I would have quit the instrument. Just make sure to enjoy many hours of undisciplined noodling around ... don't restrict yourself to scales! Keep your love of the instrument very much alive, because there's nothing like official clarinet pedagogy to kill it.
