DESCRIPTION
The Palatino WI-801-C B♭ Clarinet is a dependable, student-level instrument designed specifically for beginning players in school band programs. Its high-impact plastic body offers excellent durability, making it well suited for daily classroom use, rentals, and young musicians who are still learning proper instrument handling.
The clarinet features a traditional Boehm key system with nickel-plated keys that deliver consistent response and comfortable ergonomics. Tonally, the WI-801-C produces a clear, sweet sound that supports early musical development without the resistance challenges often found in professional wooden clarinets.
Offering strong value, the Palatino clarinet is widely chosen by educators and parents as an affordable, low-maintenance entry point into band instruction, providing reliable performance while keeping overall program and ownership costs manageable.
This particular instrument saw minor usage. It is not serialized and was most likely made in Palatino’s Chinese factory in the last ten years. The emblems are faded, but the condition of the instrument is clean and the key mechanism has little to no feather scratches and no metal wear. Our technician has adjusted the Clarinet for General Playing Conditions. The unit comes with case and mouthpiece.
Whether you’re just starting out, or looking for a solid Marching Band Instrument; the Palatino Student Clarinet is a fantastic choice which can stand the test of time and be a trusted instrument through your musical adventure…
