The RZ Largo is a solid choice for beginning clarinetists needing a robust and affordable instrument. The plastic build ensures it can withstand the rigors of student use, and the included barrels offer a bit of intonation tweaking. While it won’t replicate a high-end wooden clarinet’s tone, it’s a surprisingly decent starting point for those just getting into the clarinet family.

Frequently Asked Questions

It’s a marketing term; the bore shape attempts to mimic some of the tonal characteristics, but the plastic material’s inherent qualities prevent it from truly replicating the warmth of grenadilla.
The leather pads are standard quality for this price range, so they’re adequate, but a student should still be encouraged to handle the instrument with care to avoid leaks and premature wear.
It's a good stepping stone, but understand the limitations; the transition to a wooden clarinet will reveal the differences in tonal complexity and responsiveness.
