Re: Buffet Prodige review?

Hmm... I tried the buffet protege for a few minutes at my music store. I would say that it's probably one of the best plastic clarinets along with the Backun Alpha. The key work is really nice and all the notes are pretty silky. However, it's not far from a b12 or YCL 200

I would totally recommend it if you could get it for a really good discount. If you're getting it for over $700. I would not recommend it. Once you go that budget a little bit, you can just get a Lyrique 576.

However, once your child goes to marching band, don't expect it to be in nice quality. The hot weather, along with the sweat that might be on the keys will tarnish the metal. It will also remove the paint that makes the clarinet look wood so the clarinet will look very glossy.

What i'm trying to get across is that you should be getting it at a very good price. A B12 or YCl 200 will do just fine for a beginner and you don't want to ruin a nice plastic clarinet in the harsh environment of marching band.
