I noticed on one of the Kohlert clarinet responses said the clarinet
was labeled Bohemia, someone else said that it must be older than
1918 as after that time they were made in Czechoslovokia. For what
it's worth Bohemia is one of 2 states in the Czech Republic, the
other being Moravia so I wouldn't try and date the instrument on
that criteria. I have a Kohlert Bass and am trying to determine if
it is an A or Bb. I don't have the original neck. Can anyone suggest
a way to find out or does anyone else have a Kohlert that I can
communicate with and get some measurements?
