Damaged lower bell ring

Author: bwilber

I bought a nice old Buffet circa 1955 off of Ebay and it's in the shop getting a complete overhaul. My only problem with the clarinet is that evidently it had a loose lower bell ring and somebody at one time took a chisel and went all around the ring and tried to punch the ring onto the clarinet so it wouldn't move. So now the ring is quite flawed. I still thought that it was worth the overhaul ($230.00) but I was told that it's pretty impossible to replace or fix that lower ring. Any comments? Thanks
