Below: One of the reviews from a delighted customer in Dublin (for more reviews of both Ridenour and Craven Sonoro products go to customer reviews)

“I have Les’s new Sonoro SM Bb, with his Craven mouthpiece and Silverstein ligature, and it is an absolute joy to play. He set it up himself, and it responds to the lightest breath. The insight and expertise that he puts into his service and into the instruments is just superb, priceless, and extremely welcome. In short, getting a clarinet from Les is like getting a light saber from Obi-Wan Kenobi.” Liam Borgstrom – Dublin
