Why does the wooden clarinet have to be cleaned with bore oil?

Wooden clarinets DO NOT have to be cleaned with bore oil. I have had my clarinets for eight years and have never used bore oil on them. It is a waste of time and money. Any reputable clarinet repairman or clarinetist worth his salt will tell you that bore oil is a waste of time and unnecessary.

Is a Jupiter clarinet a good one?

In my opinion, no. . Though the brand has improved over the years, they are still below par. A good clarinet is a wooden one made by Buffet, Yamaha or Selmer. These three makers have student instruments and professional instruments. As a clarinet player with a degree in music, I would not purchase a Jupiter clarinet for any reason.

What other instruments are in the claranet family?

The clarinet family includes the regular clarinet, a smaller version that is still straight called the E-flat clarinet, and then several larger ones that have bends or curves in them, including (in size order) the alto clarinet, the bass clarinet, the contra-alto or E-flat contrabass, and the B-flat contrabass. A soprano saxophone looks somewhat like a metal clarinet, and has a single-reed mouthpiece like the clarinet, but it is part of the saxophone family, not the clarinet family - the bore of the instrument and the fingering system are entirely different from the clarinets.
