 Marigaux Clarinets...

I was going to bid on an older Marigaux clarinet, but realised the seller wouldn't post to the UK:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7402358425&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1

Not bad price for whoever got it, and it has a forked Eb mechanism!

If anyone does play or has one of these or any Marigaux clarinets, what are they like? I tried a Marigaux Symphony clarinet back in the late '80s and the tuning was dire!

Back again - I just won a Marigaux cor anglais case and cover on there, so I'm chuffed http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7403071310&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1.

I know exactly what Marigaux oboes and cors are like (as I own a Marigaux cor having chosen it over a Howarth, Loree and Rigoutat as I thought t had the best sound out of them all), only last week I overhauled an older Marigaux oboe (of the same era as the clarinet in the link going by the logo) and most of the key parts including some pad cups were single piece castings - did they do the same on their clarinets as well?
