I ran across this strange looking contraption, that of the Cannonball Arezzo Piacere Premium Bb Clarinet. Nice looking albeit weird eye candy, this was interesting. Cannonball saxes are enjoyed by some of my friends.

However, I've never been a fan of the Backun look.
Welcome John. Did you get a chance to play or hearjbtsax said:I have seen the prototype models of these clarinets in person since I live and work close to the Cannonball headquarters in Utah. I believe the price point for these clarinets will be somewhere between 2 to 3K and that they will be very competitively priced when compared to clarinets of equal quality especially since each comes with two custom bells and barrels, and has either gold or silver plated keys.

Yes, do tell. We don't get enough of that kind of feedback.Ed Svoboda said:Dave, What were the standouts?
There's definitely a component of that in some of the funky clarinets/saxophones.There is one positive aspect and that is if it gets a student to stay longer in the music program, I'm all for it. Bring on the green or pink instruments, funky bells and barrels, and weird ligs. Just as long as we keep the kids playing as long as possible.
