A coule bits of further info would be helpful, Clarinetman. What town do you live in and what happened to your bell?

Get in touch with Francois Kloc, who may be able to get your bell repaired, and is the best source for a replacement. I don't have his email address, but GBK or someone else probably does.

Best regards.

I recently had a pair of new barrels made for my Buffet Elite A, the waiting period was 3 months for Buffet to make them. I expect that the waiting period for a new bell will be about the same.

Do you know who I need to contact to get this done? Do you have an email or a number you could give me? I would greatly appreciate that.

Seeing that (as of yet) you haven't replied, Clarinetman, I'll guess that your author title indicates you're associated with Sac State. If so, you can talk to Mr. Wong in the repair shop located on the first floor of the music building there. He'll either help you right away or send you in the right direction.

I guess I'd have second thoughts, too, if I lived down there, Clarinetman  :)

On the positive side, I suppose there are a few repair shops in your area (I'm thinking; 'spare parts')... unless you're out in the desert.
