Leblanc Cadenza hex key?

Author: moose6589

Hey everyone,

I've been playing a Leblanc Cadenza for a while and have found a need to adjust some of those little adjustment screws (which are hex-shaped). However, I seem to have lost the tiny little plastic hex key that was supplied with the instrument.

I attempted to buy a set of hex keys, but when they arrived, I found that they were all too big for the instrument. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement for that for a reasonable price (as in, not buying another whole set of hex keys)? Thanks.

Richard

I assume that the hex key is the same as an Allen wrench. Miniature Allen wrenches are readily available -- Google returns dozens of sources. Hobby and model-making shops should also carry them.

bring your clarinet to a hardware store and they can find the right size. since you don't know if it is metric or American you might get the wrong thing if you order on-line.
