Clarinet and Saxophone Society (CASS) review (Winter 2009)
"This outfit has had serious thought applied, and no expense has been spared in adding in ‘the accessories’. The case looks very well made, dependable and stylish, branded with the Uebel logo. It suggests a serious player. The first striking observation with the Uebel is the wood. It is just stunning quality, unstained and dense with the bore finished to a quality very rarely seen. The keywork has been produced and finished to exacting standards, the corks and pads fitted to perfection. Before playing it feels balanced and comfortable, and not surprisingly, when blown it is a complete pleasure, capable of projecting both a large symphonic and a measured chamber work tone. The throat area was clean and clear, with no obvious tuning errors across the range. This is a clarinet that demands serious consideration from serious players. I presume Uebel are not looking to dominate the UK clarinet sales figures in the near future, and this is totally acceptable. The Uebel is quality, quality, quality. Should you consider a purchase, find a retailer you can visit to compare the Uebel with other makes. Enjoy the experience of there being such a terrific range of wood clarinets available, but above all spend wisely. Do not just accept the easy option of well known brands, because, here we have [a new name] that deserves your attention."
