Dear Jacqueline,

I have two basset (blasting) horns, including one buffet open ring key, wooden
bell that used to belong to Daniel Bonade.

Take your choice - the clarinet like open model or the more common low c
"modern beast"

p.s. I will offer Two "GREAT" Basset reeds to the first person at the weekend
to perform the Corigliano or the Nielsen clarinet concerto "yes in front of us
all" on the basset hound!
