    Description

    Played a LeBlanc Symphony for decades, but I upgraded to the Bb above (1st series of pictures).   Though this Bb Signature cost more than a new Buffet R13, I loved the tone and the intonation (it was a bit heavier than the Buffet R13.  The retailer said it was part of a buy from a music business that closed and it had been in the warehouse for some years, and that he had done a lot of refurbishing before selling it - as new / old stock at a below-list price.  I've played it happily in many wind orchestra and clarinet choir concerts - until arthritic fingers told me to find something with different keys!
    My (orchestral) tutor said to also acquire an A, and I found this 'matching' one - brand new and from a store closing down.  It was still in plastic wrappers but no case.  Intonation & tone were great with my mouthpieces so I got it and a new Protec double case.
    As you can see, the case has room for a lot of accessories and a pouch big enough for orchestral music.  (The Bonade workbook is shown just for sizing and is not included - unless you request it.)  The shoulder strap is in that pouch for now.  This double case was acquired for the A and has never been outside the house.
    Of course no warranties exist anymore for any of this.
