Selmer Series 9* Bb Clarinet
A wonderful example of Selmer's clarinet craftsmanship,
circa 1965. This instrument was overhauled by us
about a year ago, and is now offered on consignment
by the owner. It's in 120517140466great condition, with
no visible cracks or plating wear. The nickel silver
plating was cleaned, but not polished. Pads and corks
are still in fine shape. Comes in its original Vanguard
case.
This clarinet has the warm tone, crisp response and
precise intonation that is characteristic of Selmer
clarinets of this era. They are often favored by jazz
players, though plenty of symphonic musicians have
played on them over the years. The perfect instrument
for a woodwind doubler or and advanced student ready
to "move up" to a professional clarinet.

sound. Comes with our full, one-year warrantly.

Selmer "Centered Tone" Clarinet
A classic, from 1956, this "Centered Tone" clarinet,
serial #Q5713 is a full Boehm system, with 6 rings, an
articulated G# key, and a low Eb key. The low Eb key
would give the player the range of an A clarinet without
the expense of an additional instrument. This one is
scheduled for complete restoration in 2008. Contact Us
if you're interested in more info.

Selmer "Signet" Clarinet
The "Signet" was Selmer's intermediate line of clarinets
during the 1960's and '70's. They were very nicely
made instruments and, when overhauled and set up
properly, make very fine horns for advanced students,
doublers or pros looking for a back-up. The wood stock
was better back then, so if you can find one that is not
cracked, it probably never will. The body of this one is
perfect. It is scheduled for complete overhaul in late
2007. Contact Us for more information.

Buffet R-13 B-Flat Clarinet
Great-playing Buffet R-13 clarinet, serial number
138,XXX, built around 1973. Warm, even tone; tight,
focused sound; impeccable scale.
The grenadilla wood body has no cracks and shows no
signs of ever having been pinned. If it hasn't cracked in
over 30 years, if probably never will, if it's treated
properly. These older Buffet's are made of better
quality wood than is commonly available today. Why
buy a new one, only to have it crack in the first few
years?
The upper joint has been re-padded recently, with a
combination of cork and bladder pads. The lower joint
pads are a bit older, but still quite serviceable. Nickel
silver keys are slightly tarnished, but in great shape.
A great instrument for the pro or advanced student.
