I have a Selmer A clarinet with a 3xxx serial #--"Brevete SGDG" stamped on the top joint--means patent pending, more or less--and made in the 1930s or so. Great sound, wood in good shape--BUT the ring keys on both joints are totally worn, makes playing a chore, and it's become clear that getting spare parts is hopeless.These notes can be difficult to play with a clear, centered sound due to the complex harmonic structure of the clarinet's sound waves. By using resonance fingerings, the player can eliminate certain overtones and emphasize others, resulting in a more focused sound. One common resonance fingering on the clarinet is the "throat tone" fingering.B-Flat Clarinet Black Ebonite Clarinet For Student Beginner, With Nickel-plated Keys,Belt, Joint Grease, White Gloves, Soft Polishing Cloth, 8 Mouthpiece Cushion, Hard clarinets. 4.5 out of 5 stars. 105. $89.00 $ 89. 00.

A1234) - the serial number is stamped by the C#/G# tonehole on the top joint and on the lower joint above the tenon.The S1 and S2 both had the same bore size (14.75mm) but the S1 was the new model pro level clarinet they offered in the early '90s (they also made some clarinets back in the late '40s) and had a longer top joint tenon and a resulting deep barrel socket that gave better stability when pulling the barrel out when tuning.The Clarinet BBoard. All seriousness aside, my experience is limited to having overhauled one 424N. I was actually quite impressed by the quality of materials and workmanship (unlike newer Conns which are abysmal). It played pretty well too, as I recall, although it was about five years ago so I don't remember the details.I used a Legere Signature European Cut synthetic clarinet reed in 3.5 and a Behn Aria reed in 3.5. The R is as expected, wonderfully compact and focused, with really easy articulation. I felt that the "hold" for the tonal range of this mouthpiece is fairly easy to achieve, and it feels good leaping through different registers while maintaining ...A google search takes me straight to the answer on the clarinet BBoard.

Step 1. Clean it. Step 2. Change the pads.Brilhart was a fine alto saxophonist who started his career in the 1920s, playing with a lot of bands that became very popular. In the '30s, he began making mouthpieces on a fairly large scale, larger than any other "specialty" mouthpiece maker of the time. Many well-known players used Brilhart MPs.Hi Bob, It gives more body to the sound while keeping tonal range full, not cutting off highs. Sure it's more resistant than stock but not as much as Backuns, somewhere half-way. As for "fast dynamics", it makes pads clamp like you're playing a brand new clarinet. On/off feeling of pad down/pad up, something like this.Author: tim Date: 2003-02-15 16:03 I have recentely ( 3 weeks now)started playing after a 30 year "break" I played in the Highschool band in 1973.Whether or not to use bore oil at all is a hotly-debated topic among clarinetists. If you want to see a bunch of people fight over whether this video of Michael Lowenstern soaking a barrel in oil for 7 months and then sawing it in half to look at the wood gives us any useful information, check out this clarinet bboard thread from 2018.Hi m1964, I am interested to check out this model because I was impressed by the Ripamusic bass clarinet when I tried out once before. The intonation was good, but only the lower register keys are heavy. As it looks quite different from the commonly found Chinese bass clarinet, I thought they really made their products.To summarise, it is quite close to a 5RV Lyre over most of the curve, but with changes at either end. The BD is shorter, with the opening of the curve going to zero more abruptly beyond 15mm from the tip, and it has a stronger curvature just 2-3mm from the tip with the curve flaring more open quite suddenly.

Selmer RI enhanced boehm (metal) Selmer K-series (17/7) Leblanc Dynamique enhanced boehm. The clarinet has ligatures. mouthpieces, humidifiers, and REEDS. Once you've bought the flute that's it until you get a better flute or upgrade the head joint. With the clarinet you can always try new barrel, reed, and mouthpiece combinations.

I have tried the new Hanson clarinets that are being manufactured in England. They have hard rubber bodies machined of course. Good solid keywork and are padded up with Pisoni double bladder pads and come in a backpack style case.Buffet learned to make a clarinet that played in tune for the first time in the mid 1950s, and up till that time there was no huge advantage in switching from B+H instruments. By the mid 1980s, Buffet ruled the UK: it just took that long for players unwilling to switch to be replaced by the younger generation.The $300 Chinese Boehm System G clarinets need a lot of tuning out of the box, but after changing the tonehole sizes a bit and adjusting some of the keywork they play very very well. I've had people tell me my modified Chinese G clarinet is one of the best clarinets they've ever played.As a clarinet teacher, my safe bet for a refined sound is the Vandoren 5RV Lyre. I suggest M13 Lyre (there’s a difference between M13 and M13 Lyre). Another thing to keep in mind, idea reed strength CAN change based on the mouthpiece. M13 Lyre is generally really good for harder reeds.The 1010's have gotten a bit of press on the bb recently, but not the Imperial 926. I am looking a a clarinet that has neither number on the horn itself, but is wearing a B&H 926 mouthpiece.

(It's available for alto and bass clarinets as well as for saxes.) Their Pure Brass ligature, which is available for the Bb soprano, is a bit different. The reed plate on all models is significantly different from the Spriggs, although there are ...The clarinet with its open tone holes has been demonstrated to be a very strong spreader of aerosols, and we therefore need to take added precautions.

Nothing wrong with playing 3rd but it depends on the literature. Bass Clarinet: A real blast; much fun; contemporary band music has decent parts. Sometimes the director needed to tell me to "not dominate the other low reeds." LOL.The tapered barrel works to address one particular issue in small bore clarinets: to narrow the twelfths. This is a problem because we generally use mouthpieces that have larger bores than the upper joint cylinder. The tapered barrel keeps the twelfths from coming out so much sharper than the fundamental.The Ethnic Clarinet: Posts: 1808 : Last Post: 2024-03-08 02:00: Ethnic styles - klezmer, Macedonian, etc. The Fingering Forum: Posts: 14227 : Last Post: 2024-04-03 22:12: Run by Tim Reichard, this is a place to discuss fingerings for all woodwind instruments, from tin whistle to contrabassoon The Oboe BBoard: Posts: 30374 :Date: 2023-09-21 09:53.

A plastic clarinet is extra-sturdy, lightweight, and less expensive than a wood clarinet. A wood clarinet is a bit heavier than a plastic one, but the key benefit is its sound. It is warm and full-bodied, while a plastic clarinet offers a less mellow, more synthetic sound.The Ethnic Clarinet: Posts: 1808 : Last Post: 2024-03-08 02:00: Ethnic styles - klezmer, Macedonian, etc. The Fingering Forum: Posts: 14227 : Last Post: 2024-04-03 22:12: Run by Tim Reichard, this is a place to discuss fingerings for all woodwind instruments, from tin whistle to contrabassoon The Oboe BBoard: Posts: 30374 :The Bb/F tonehole is the one directly under the RH2 fingerplate as that's where the notes Bb and F issue directly from.
