I have three old clarinets that were found in an attic. Two are labeled Gunckel. One is an "A", one is a "B-flat" the other is a "C" (I think). I have restored them and would like information on the manufacturer.

Could these have been made for or imported for him? I have no idea of age. There are fewer keys than on an Albert System Clarinet, but that is all I know.

Any information on the manufacturer would be appreciated.

Thanks.

That's all the information I have available. If it's not marked "BC" anywhere then it'll probably be impossible to trace the true origin of the clarinets.
