 Re: Have not played in 40 years!

I just joined, as I'm looking at starting to play again in a local community band. It's been about ten years since I last played in college. I currently have an old (1921, if My research is correct) Boosey & Hawkes 2-20 wood clarinet. Unfortunately it always had some problems playing consistently in tune, and although it looks to be in decent condition after sitting in storage for many years, I'm not sure how well it will actually perform. In college I played on a school-owned R13 and loved it, particularly compared to my B&H, but such an instrument is not at all in my budget.

Anyway, does anyone have suggestions worth considering that are in the sub-$1000 range, but which should perform reasonably well?
