This Bb clarinet includes everything you need to get started right out of the box, it even comes with soft, white gloves and a stand. There are no assembly instructions, which wasn’t a problem for me as I have done it many times. The cork is very tight because, so be sure to use the included cork grease when you first assemble the clarinet to ensure that there’s no damage to the cork. I always use a twisting motion, which allows for less wear on the cork.
The case is very nice as well, it has a soft lining and seems well protected for a soft-sided case. I like that it also comes with a stand, although I do wish that it fit in the case, so I would not forget it.
The clarinet itself seems well constructed, but a bit fragile for a child who may not be able to handle it delicately. It’s great for beginners, the keys are close together making it easier for smaller hands. The sound is excellent for the price. It has a rich, warm tone. I did find I needed to tune it with a piano to get it at the right flat. The keys work easily and there’s no squeaking. This is definitely an instrument for a beginner though and at this price, it’s far less expensive than renting and can just be passed on to another when you are ready to upgrade after mastering this one.
All in all, I’d say that this clarinet is a great value for beginners looking for an all inclusive, great sounding instrument.

I want to note that at first, the clarinet pieces (mouthpiece, the barrel, the upper joint, the lower joint, and the bell, (in order)) were hard to piece together. I realized then that all new clarinets are a bit hard around the cork because the manufacturers want clarinet to last longer, hence the tighter the better, that way the cork doesn't become too lose too fast (what clarinet cork grease can be used for). Tip: You can also adjust the barrel or switch to the other barrel it comes with to your liking for different or better sound.
About the Bb Clarinet:
Bb clarinet is the most popular used instrument. It's a transposing instrument, so the note would be around a major second from the note written on the music sheet. Fun fact about the Bb clarinet is that it's used in songs like jazz or songs like Mozart and older classical songs. Because of the wide range of musical compositions for Bb Clarinet, it is the most prominent choice, especially for beginning students. Another fact to chose this instrument is that it is flexible for players who would like to switch instruments like a saxophone or a flute between or in songs.
When I played this Bb clarinet the tone felt bright and rich. I was impressed by the great sound and action that came with it. Make sure to never touch your thin part of the reed (easy to damage) and keep the reed moist when you play for nicer sound. The clarinet comes in great packaging and condition. The fact that it comes with a care kit plus a portable stand and all this for a great price! I definitely recommend purchasing this instrument especially if you are a beginner, you won't regret it!
I really hope that this can inspire many people who wish to play or already play the clarinet to try this one.
