Such materials don’t require as much investment, and to drive down the price further, student clarinets are generally mass produced, not hand crafted. Manufacturers choose tougher materials for student clarinets not just for durability, but also because they're more cost-effective. The keys and pads on a student clarinet can also usually take more abuse while requiring fewer adjustments. This is because beginners, especially those who are younger, may not be ready to care for more sensitive materials, which require careful maintenance and regular cleaning.
#SELMER BUNDY RESONITE CLARINET VS YCL250 PRO#
A student clarinet generally has a hard rubber or plastic body, whereas a pro version will often feature a body made from premium wood. Although much of the variance, such as playability, is best appreciated by a musician, there are a few differences that anyone can see.įor instance, the materials used for each type are usually not the same. After all, those in the latter category can cost more than 10 times what an entry-level clarinet costs, yet they look incredibly similar. If you’re just jumping into the world of buying a clarinet, you might be wondering what, exactly, makes a beginner instrument so much different from a pro model. But it does come in quite a stunning array of colors, so if you're trying to encourage a reluctant player, it could be helpful. You can expect that it will end up needing to be replaced sooner than many others.
We have also opted the keep the Lazarro 150-BK-L as a super-low-budget option, but it's more of a last resort for those who really need to stay in the sub-$100 range.
That's why we have given the Jean Paul USA CL-300 the number one spot - it's less likely to pain your wallet, but it's still a reasonable, durable choice. Of course, neither of these instruments is particularly cheap and may in fact cost more than many people want to invest in a student clarinet. It's tough to say which one is necessarily better, as the choice comes down to the preference of the individual player. The two are quite similar to each other in many respects, but there are a few small differences, namely the fact that the Prodige has an adjustable thumb rest, whereas the Premium has a fixed thumb rest. For this reason, we have removed it in favor of the aforementioned models.
Although the Buffet B12 was discontinued in 2016, we still felt it wise to include it in the past, as it's long been a popular favorite however, it's now becoming more difficult to find, as the Buffet Premium and Buffet Prodige take its place.
