  • I am not hailed for having a great sense of urgency nor memory. This clarinet has been sitting in my trunk ever since I got my new clarinet. I am sorry Dr. Monroe. I will return this to you when I am back in NC. I will also pay for the repair...
    Holy crap though. Eastman saxophones are INCREDIBLE! I was not expecting this. I will keep playing on my new Mark VI a little longer before I think about switching butttt those Eastmans are DEFINITELY my favorite modern horns I have ever tried.
    Thank you Adam Schoen for your great help. You are the ultimate good man. And thank you Music Man Inc. for repairing my clarinet!!! I will be back.

    Trying a whole sleu of different horns and finding one that you really click with is an amazing feeling. I went to a Music & Arts store event with a couple friends once and tried a whole bunch of clarinets they had on display. I ended up really clicking with the Yamaha CSVR. Over a year later, I was finally able to get one of my own as my senior gift this past February. I love the horn to death, though I will always look upon my days with my $100 Selmer Bundy horn with fondness.

      I went to a music and arts event in which they had dozens of clarinets at the ready, and the one I clicked with was a bakun proroge, most beautiful clarinet I've ever played, I ended up getting a Leblanc serenade, and one day hope to get the proroge, just love it

      @MaiseNow 3 роки тому +18

      The cases aren't airtight and heat resistant. The heat and humidity changes can stress the material and make it warp or split (if it's wood), causing it to have leaks. Also they have pads like saxophones

      It’s a Bundy by Selmer. So, it’s a plastic clarinet, wood cracking isn’t a huge issue. The biggest worry would be the heat. Pads and corks are glued in. Especially with the heat in South Florida, it’s Amazing that all of the pads sealed as well as they did!

      @@musicmaninc4305 on a scale of 1 to 10 how bad are these things? I’ve only ever played on a wooden clarinet. I’m thinking about getting something like this, I gave my nice clarinet to my nephew. I have a bunch of instruments I’m trying to get (just imagine some goober trying to eventually create some type of weird folk “orchestra”) but I want something to hold me over until I’ve saved up enough money to get all the crazy stuff I want. Including an expensive clarinet that I’d like. So I figure getting something like this would give me a chance to experiment with some of my weird ideas on garage band. (Congas + Ukulele + cello banjo + clarinet)
      Do they have anything similar that’s tuned in Eb instead as well? Because I’m thinking I want something in a higher tuning.

    The Selmer Series 10 was comparable to the R13. The Series 9 was more jazz oriented. At least that's what I've always heard. I played on a 10 back in the early 80's when I was in high school.

    • @DaleFedele
      @DaleFedele 3 роки тому

      Well there was the Series 9 and then the 9*. Then there was the 10G and the 10S. The 10G was the most "classical" since it was designed in collaboration with Anthony Gigliotti of the Philly Orchestra. The 10G is my favorite Selmer clarinet (other than the BT and early pre-BT's) because it's intonation is exceptional. Everybody seems to love the original Series 9 (more than 9*) and I love the tone but pitch always seems to be an issue.

      @@DaleFedele Pitch is definitely the biggest issue with it. I can take a few notes to a tuner, and you’d laugh. But the tone is so pure and unmatched.

    My last name is LeBlanc, it really makes me mad when someone pronounces the "c" because the "c" is SILENT. PLEASE stop pronouncing the c.
