This is a Bb Accent Clarinet that I have had for 6 or so years at this point and my dad was on The Board of Directors of Marshall Music in Lansing Michigan at the time and got it for me. I had no problems with this since I got this. The clarinet is fully functional and has an excellent, full sound to it. This instrument has no chips or scratches on it. The mouthpiece is a little bit discolored but it is good to go.
