Reunited and it feeeels so GOOOD (with my ridenour clarinet)

I'm packing up to get all my stuff packed and shipped by the good 'ol US Army to my next duty station and I found my Ridenour clarinet that I stored while I was in Iraq. It has a little bit of tarnish on the keys, but some buffing takes it off REALLY well.

Took my mouthpiece and slapped it on there to make sure all the pads and keys were working well ... and ... it was magnificent. Still in perfect adjustment, and sounds AWESOME. I think I'll use it tomorrow for a ceremony.

I missed it. And I'm glad to have it back!

PS - On a sidenote, anyone have tips on polishing those keys up that hopefully don't need me taking it completely apart? I'd prefer not to if I don't have to.

I think you might need to disassemble it for that.

Thank you for your service to our country by the way!
