Advantages: Good quality student clarinet Disadvantages: expensive but worth it
I am normally a flautist, but have been learning the clarinet as a second instrument. I recently decided to upgrade from a slightly battered 2nd hand instrument to something a bit "nicer". The local music shop had a huge selection of different brands of clarinet. the student ones vary tremendously in price and quality, so I tried them all.

It is very high quality and was expensive but well worth the money. Reeds fit beautifully with it and a high quality cork was used.
I can only say that occasionally when my mouth is tired after playing for extended periods, it sometimes lets out a squeak, but this is a combination of reed, mouthpiece, and facial muscle tiredness. ...
