Looking to explore the other members of the Clarinet family? Then why not try the Vito Reso-tone alto clarinet! Cosmetically, this alto clarinet is in decent condition but is showing signs of use. The plastic body has a glossy finish, so marks on the instrument tend to show a little easier than those with a matte finish. This horn was used in a school setting at one point, and the name of the school appears to have been gently etched on the back of the instrument near upper bottom tenon. Besides the intentional marking, there are a few scratches on both the upper and lower joint, and some plating wear on several of the keys and on the thumb rest. The bell also has a few scratches, but only on the side of the bell facing the player, and the scratches are very light. None of these blemishes impact the way this instrument plays or prevents the player from doing anything with it.
Playing-wise, this horn is in great shape! Our professional woodwind technician fully disassembled and cleaned this instrument, replaced every single pad, and also adjusted and oiled all keys and mechanisms to ensure that all the new pads were seated and sealing properly. Both tenon corks were also replaced. In short -- This instrument is as new as it can get! Functionally, this should feel like a nearly new alto clarinet regardless of any cosmetic blemishes.
