Re: Bundy clarinets: A few observations

Hi,

I ws a band director for many decades and during that time, started hundreds of beginners, the Bundy was always the first choice for clarinet as well as sax and flute. The first clarinet upgrade was usually a Luyben ligature (then about $4) in middle school and later a better mouthpiece which was often a Selmer HS**, a VD, or a Portnoy BP02 along with better reeds.

I had many students get Superior ratings at contest on this rig even in Class A. I started two granddaughters on Bundy clarinets and then switched them to Ridenour 147s. It is hard to fault either instrument.
