Buying a applied or refurbished clarinet, for some people, feels like a stab in the dark. How do you know what to buy and who to buy from? This article will give guidelines that will answer these two questions whether you’re going to buy from your local music store, or an online site, or from an ad in the newspaper.
o Know something when it comes to the seller
Research selective information when it comes to the vendor so you recognise who you’re buying from. Get views from local musicians. Most musicians will want to be helpful to you. Ask music teachers what they think of a peculiar music store or vendor on an online site. Maybe they would be more than willing to aid in the selection routine or help with researching the seller. We commend you stay away from pawn shops unless you actually have someone welleducated to take with you.
o Make sure you get a cash back guarantee
Don’t buy from any person who will not give you a cash back guarantee. I think it is reasonable for the vender to put a reasonable time limit on their money-back policy. Make sure you are clear regarding their return policy and that it is possible to return the clarinet and what the terms are.
o Know what you want
If you are buying for a beginner or a child, you probably want to start out with a plastic or hard rubber clarinet. This type of clarinet requires less care and maintenance than a wood clarinet and is commonly less immune which makes it requiring little effort for a beginner to get a tone produced. Again, ask those who know. Teachers will be happy to give you their opinion on what is a good choice.
Some of our recommendations are to stick to major brands when looking for a clarinet. Selmer, Yamaha, Buffet, and Leblanc are all trustable makers with a long history of developing good, solid clarinets. Another outstanding choice may be the Ridenour hard rubber clarinet made by Tom Ridenour which I have found to be great sounding clarinets at more lowcost prices.
If you are looking for a clarinet for a beginner or a child, the following models are good: the Selmer 300 and 1400 models, Yamaha 20, Leblanc Vito Resotone (#3, 7212, and 7214 ) and the Buffet B12 are all solid resonite clarinet and good selections for a beginning instrument. The Ridenour 147 is a newer model clarinet that plays very well also. We have found all the models cited here to be very consistent in quality. Of course, it also makes a huge divergence how that applied clarinet was cared for.
If you are looking for a wood instrument, again we would commend the above manufacturers. Some models would be the Selmer Signet line, the Leblanc Noblet or the Normandy clarinets. We strongly commend staying away from clarinet brands you’ve never heard of. There are numerous of them that plainly are not well made and don’t have the quality of the above brought up brands.
o Know what to look for.
Inspect the pads for worn edges, splits, or other damage. If buying goods online, look almost at the photos. Don’t buy anything that isn’t shown without doubt or question with various photos. Look at the cork where the pieces are joined together. Is it chipped or severely worn or even missing? Read the seller’s copy carefully. We commend that you stay away from any marketer who isn’t experienced with clarinets.
o Don’t forget to bargain!
Make an offer; it may never hurt to try.
o Good luck!
As you exploration and explore the vast world of clarinets, I give hope or courage to you to have fun with this process. Hopefully some of what you’ve read here will support you do that.

 works just as well as the more highpriced brands
By Ivory Howell
I was renting to own a new vito clarinet, one of the more highpriced brands, initial price $897. at $59.24/mth for 21 mths total cost being $1,072.47. I thought why am i paying this much for a clarinet?
well I wasn’t I was paying for the name. so I decisive to search my favored internetsite AMAZON of course and I ran accross the conductor Bb clarinet for $99 bucks and I thought yea right, what is the catch? but I put my skepticism to the side and took a chance. to my surprise it works just as well as the vito and still is! my daughter whos 11 now loves it. So if you are looking for a very good clarinet for a much for less price the conductor is a fantasti choice. do not waste your cash buying a name. I commend this for the new buyers especially.

Fast Delivery, Great Service!
By M. Butindaro
I purchased this clarinet from The Instrument Store and I can not believe what a high quality instrument it is and what an unbelievable value. I could not afford to rent from my local music store and this clarinet was well within my budget and it exceeded all of my expectations. I would commend this highly to any parent looking to buy for their child student.

 Very good buy!
By C. W. grant
Very good clarinet, for beginner or even somebody who plays. Mouth-piece comes with reed and carrying case is good. Came in new condition as specified. Very good price and shipping time. Very good buy and worth the money. This is a good buy!
