The only equipment determinations I can make by looking at my CDs is that
he uses a Bay lig...however, I do recall reading some time ago that his
BASSET clarinet is a hybrid of sorts. The CD liner of my Mostly Mozart
recording says that the instrument was built by Leonard Gullotta.
Nevertheless, I distinctly recall reading that the basset was actually a
standard top joint, and the bottom joint was custom. Perhaps his standard
clarinets are Buffets, and the top joint of his basset is a Selmer?

Just possibilities...
