Re: Question about bass clarinet manufacturer

Lion Roar has no contact info. Ripa Music and MusicMedic have phone numbers; I'd call them and ask where their instrument comes from.
As far as I know, if an item comes from abroad (China, Mexico, etc.) to the US, and even one small screw is installed in the US, the item can be labeled "Made in the US".
My understanding is that with the bass, it is very important that the keywork is made well, otherwise the instrument will may constantly need adjustments.
Not saying that instruments made in China (or India, or anywhere else) cannot be made well, but when spending a few thousand $$, I'd stick with a reputable name/brand.
