I vote for the Fobes Debut ... examine them for even side and tip rails before buying. The Hite Premier seems a little better to me, if you can find a good one, as they are less consistent than the Fobes. The Hites are in sealed boxes, so you can't look at them 1st.

I have a couple of Ridenour RE10s and they are quite good, but about twice the price. Warm and covered, and very uniform top to bottom.

If the student can part with an extra 65 bucks, I'd go with a closer facing Vandoren "M" series or maybe the 5RV-lyre.

If you can find something that plays well with the highly available Vandorens, that would be a plus. Legere would be a good choice, if they work OK with selected MP.
