The Silvertone CL200 Bb Clarinet features: A Hard Polymer Body, Power Forged Nickel Plated Keys, USA Made Double Bladder Pads, 65mm Barrel, Hand Finished Hard Rubber Mouthpiece, Wood-Style Finish and a Highly Protective Case with an embroidered Silvertone logo. Each Silvertone instrument was carefully designed, examined and tested at the factory. A special quality control system is in place and only those instruments that met the highest degree of quality are accepted for the Silvertone name. Materials have been tested at IMIRL, (Interdisciplinary Musical Instrument Research Laboratory at Brooklyn College), for consistency of workmanship, quality in brass alloys, hard rubber composites, tone production, and ease of playability. All instruments have been pre-tested according to the strictest quality control procedures under the combined efforts and guidance of Dr. Paul Shelden, internationally respected woodwind performer, band and orchestra director, music technologist, product developer, and professor of music and Mr. Frank Salazar, a well respected musician, professional saxophone, woodwind performer, percussionist, and brass woodwind engineer. Silvertone band instruments feature U.S. design and specifications. Crafted with the student in mind, all instruments have highly superior tone quality and exceptional construction, resulting in consistency and beauty of sound, performance readiness and materials that will hold up to repeated student use. Silvertone's student line of band instruments offer a quality and value that is perhaps the best on the market today.
