I was watching the Disney Channel last night, they had on one of those 1950's shorts about music on. At any rate, they were animating all of these instruments, and one of them happened to be a white clarinet that I'm almost positive wasn't plastic. Also, recently, I saw a pro player doing some jazz work on a white clarinet, and didn't think to ask about it. As I recall, it was gold w/ white key work. I don't even know what it was made out of, but it appeared to have the bore demensions of a wood and not a metal clarinet. I realize this is a particulary vague question, but beyond the vito dazzlers, do white clarinets exist? Were there pro models? What were they made out of, and which manufacturers made them? Any help on the subject would be appreciated. Sorry, by the way, for such a lame and anti-musical question.

I believe Vito makes some student models in red, white, blue, green. During the playoffs a couple years ago, one of the schools we played against had all red clarinets and drums to match their school colors. Looked pretty good too!

I have seen some Ivory clarinets from pre-WWI. One that i saw after ivory was illegal, was dyed black to fool customs.
