Hi all,
I am a clarinetist and vintage instrument fan.
Recently I acquired some very interesting instruments.
The most strange of all is a Bb clarinet, Albert System, probably LP, branded Wunnenberg, Coln. No serial number, totally hand made. It's is in almost perfect conditions (no cracks) with the original leather case. From what I have found only another Wunnenberg instrument is known, an oboe that is at the Musikmuseet Museum of Stockholm.
The wood is wonderful, very heavy. I played a little and it has the most deep and round sound I ever heard. Anybody has an idea of the value of this instrument? It was made between 1850 and 1870 probably.
Thanks in advance,
