RE: Experience on Leblanc Vito V40

They're not sold through discount cataloges. Only upper-level Leblanc dealers have them (supposedly). My local dealer has carried them for a number of years and they have been the required instrument of our school district for middle school kids. The band directors chose them over some of the lesser priced wood clarinets because they really liked the way they played. A bit better than your average plastic.

Phil Smallwood started a thread about second clarinets and that started me thinking about trying a V40 as a potential backup for outdoor concerts in the over 100 degree F. heat here in Texas.

I know they're not as easy to get as regular Vitos and other plastics, that's why I'm looking for some input on how they hold up, what they sound like, how people like them. Especially people who use another instrument as their main instrument--like the professional wood models--and use the V40 as a backup for bad weather, etc.
