I play in a few local orchestras. I've been very pleased with the tone and reliability of my Yamaha YCL221ii. At the same time, I'm wondering how a "step up"/"better" bass clarinet would sound and play.
As far as I can tell, moving up from the YCL 221ii is a *huge* price increase to purchase used wood Selmer's or Buffet's. I live in the Pacific Northwest should that influence anyone's thinking about wood and humidity.
What would you suggest that I consider as a step-up?
Thanks in advance, Ken
