All about Clarinets / Re: 1860s-1884 Buffet Crampon, deux
« Last post by modernicus on Today at 08:18:26 PM »Vintage clarinet doctor says 22 7/8" is the threshold for high pitch, low pitch clarinets should be 23 1/4" +/- 1/4". When the tops are lined up, the first side key tone holes line up between the HP J.T.L. and this new Buffet. Seems like HP is the most likely scenario. I'm not upset at all, they're actually hard to find for reasonable prices anymore. I actually look for HP Boehms on purpose! I still kick myself for not buying a HP A or C when I ran across them. Most every one I can find is trashed and broken of any type, or the seller wants more than a good LP equivalent.
