Hi SecondTry,
Thank you for such a thought provoking post. It's really made me think a lot.
I totally get what you mean about it being possible to make a really good plastic clarinet. Might even be lighter and smaller in diameter, which I would really like.
Were you thinking it would be good to move away from Grendilla wood, in order to preserve the forests, and help climate change? I wasn't sure if that was where you were going with it, or if you were purely thinking about the quality of the instruments.
I like Yamaha's idea of moving to farmed Grendilla wood, with fair pay for the farmers.

I kind of assumed that we would lose plastic in time, because of fossil fuels having to be phased out to fix climate change.
