Description
This is a well-preserved c.1960 vintage 'Super Artiste' model pro Bb Boehm system clarinet, by Jean Cartier of Paris (probably a Dolnet stencil). It has a grenadilla wood body with nickel alloy keys, and a bore of .585". It is in great vintage condition, with good tenons, keys and chimneys, no cracks or repairs.It has been disassembled, swedged and countersunk as needed (to tighten mechanism), body and tone holes oiled, body, posts and keys buffed, Pisoni tan kid pads installed, new key and tenon corks, and reassembled and adjusted for optimal play-ability. It has a bright, focused tone (depending on your choice of mouthpiece) and good intonation. I am very pleased with this instrument! Comes with vintage case in good condition

Why Vintage Clarinets?
I believe that vintage clarinets represent one of the most under-priced and underutilized resources on the market.
While there is some junk out there, there are many makes and models that are good to excellent players if properly overhauled and that will provide satisfaction to collectors, students and even pro players while saving the buyer hundreds of dollars! Nickel and grenadilla wood are increasingly finite resources and the craftsmanship on some of these old horns makes them a real pleasure to own. Why not try a vintage clarinet from the
