This Bb clarinet by O'Malley is a great affordablebeginner instrument with so manyadvancedfeatures that it would be the perfect second instrument or doubling woodwind choice. Sturdybakealite never goes out of tune or changes shape. This clarinet plays with a fullwarmtone throughout the range of the instrument. The silver plated keys are smoothfast and accurate. This is a clarinet that will last for many years of quality music making. We bought brand new in 2019 for my daughter to be in band. Well Covid happened and she never got to use it because we homeschooled through the epidemic. Comes with a nice carrying case,cleaning kit, and practice log all unused.
