New to the clarinet

Author: Dougiep80

Hello from Scotland. At the age of 40 I have decided to take up the clarinet (while teaching be daughter the trumpet) neither if which I have played before.

I have managed to get a Jupiter JCL631 for £85 and have the offer of a Buffet B12 for £50.

I recognise both these as being recommended as "good" basic student level instrument.

I picked up the Jupiter and managed to get a reasonable sound and scale out fairly easily.

I got the abracadabra clarinet book with the Jupiter is this a good starting point?

Sorry for rambling, just saying hello and looking for hints tips and advice.

Is it worth picking up the B12 at that price as a 2nd instrument? Thinking of keeping it in the van for down time when I'm working (courier)

Thanks

Dougie
