I have also been trying to find info on the Weimar clarinet, but without much luck. I took a risk and bought one for my child, once it has arrived I will let you know the quality.

In fact, I didn't realise they were still being made.

Someone here said they've been around for decades, and possibly these are knockoffs. The person selling them is a power seller on Ebay and has thousands of sales with a fairly decent positive feedback score, so I bought it. It only came to $77.00 including shipping. They said the pads are american made and the tone & quality is suppose to be excellent. Hoping I didn't make a mistake. The only one selling this brand on Ebay or anywhere that I can tell, is this person and one other person selling 3 Weimar instruments. I suspect maybe purchased from the same seller I bought from. Urgggh! Really hope I did the right thing. Any comments from ya'll would be appreciated.

I have had students purchase instruments over ebay or in local stores that have paid very little, but when it comes time to do a repair or adjustment on it the local music store cannot get the parts! The bottom line is that you get what you pay for. If you are going to buy a musical instrument somewhere other than a reputable music store then always ask at your local repair shop if they can get parts and/or fix it if it breaks or goes out of alignment.
