[Dixielandjazz] Clarinet Choice

[ZACH KEETER]

Happy New Year everyone!

I'm really really itching to pick my clarinet back so
I can play OKOM. The horn I have is an intermediate
model, gets the job done, but it feels rather stiff
and is hard to "bend" notes and so forth. Any
recommendations on what make/model would be more
conducive to what I want to do? The players that have
a sound I would like to emulate are Johnny Dodds,
Irving Fazola and Evan Christopher. Any info
whatsoever is greatly appreciated.
