Hi: I did a search on the bb about A. Fontaine Clarinets, looks like the information is in reference to their wooden clarinets. Is anyone familiar with the quality of their plastic clarinets?

I had a Fontaine wood [student model made by Cousenon], fair, not great. Don
Thanx, Mark, Don

"A. Fontaine" was an importer's brand name, no real way to tell who actually made the instrument.

Hi Dave, I think that we are both correct, I have an old 1950's [Woodwind magazine] ad showing Cousenon's [branded] best cl and a Fontaine student model, don't recall the low prices quoted. Ah memories, Don
Thanx, Mark, Don
