    Customers are mixed about the fit of the brass and woodwind instruments. Some mention that everything fits in it well, while others say that it won't fit properly or tighten. The tenons are tight, but soon get to a comfortable resistance. The shorter barrel still doesn't fits well, and the keys make some noise. The case it was displayed in and didn't work with the provided case. The only problem is the ligature was too big and would not tighten down enough.

    Good Clarinet For the Price, Responsive Manufacturer
    After not playing for more than 10 years, I decided that I wanted to get back into playing. I watched some reviews on student clarinets to see which brands came up as being a good value brand that sounded good enough for my own purposes. I kept seeing Jean Paul coming up over and over again as a good price for performance. So, I gave them a try. Overall, I think I picked the best instrument for me for the price. I do suggest that you invest in better quality reeds and swabs than what come with this one. The ligature may give first time players a lot of trouble, so I would suggest the CL-300 over CL-400 if you are trying to decide and do not have a standard ligature to swap in if the Rico H Ligature becomes to cumbersome for young learners.I did remove one star because the longer barrel had an unsecured piece of trim upon arrival (in the photographs). I had to contact Jean Paul and they quickly remedied this by sending me a brand new barrel within a week. Overall, this would be a great instrument for those looking to get back into playing without spending too much money. I would not call this exactly a step up from my plastic Selmer Bundy that I learned to play on.
