My Marigaux alto is awesome, and I wouldn't give it up for
anything...and I've had MK VIs, and have a Super 20 and Martins and
tried anything else you can name. The clarinet is interesting, and I
guess it does feel a little like a Selmer in some ways. The most
exposure I've had to older Selmers are a 9 and my ancient BT which I
love for jazz and doubling...I'll have to do some comparisons I guess
when I get time. Any suggestions on trying a different barrel on it?

the marigaux clarinets were better before they merged with king. SML
started
as a revolt from selmer... selmer's factory workers hopped up and left
and
formed SML. Their saxes are awesome- the rev C's D's and gold metals are
the
best. The clarients are closer to selmers for obvious reasons but of the
one
i've played it didn't compare to my buffets- might have been a bad one.
