If you are a traditionalist who insists on wooden clarinets, hear us out: the Ridenour Lyrique Libertas II might just change your mind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned by legendary acoustician Tom Ridenour (formerly of Leblanc), the Libertas II was created to solve the most common frustrations of the modern clarinetist. Instead of wood, the body is crafted from a highly stable pure hard rubber (ebonite). This gives the instrument a beautifully warm, liquid, and resonant tone that easily rivals wooden clarinets twice its price, but with one massive advantage: \u003cb\u003eit will never crack.\u003c\/b\u003e If you are a gigging professional playing outdoor summer concerts, doubling in drafty theater pits, or dealing with wild humidity swings, this is the ultimate stress-free professional horn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeyond the material, the acoustical design is remarkable.
