The following information is all I have-On the bell Bundy (R) Resonite (R) The Selma Company USA -On upper or Main section Bundy 577 at bottom of section # 1455109 Mouthpiece gold lettering Bundy and ring around it. Ligature is stainless, Selma and USA. It was passed along from a friend with a case labeled Bundy and has a blue interior. It plays - pads and cork seem OK. Having hard time with air flow and -- reed placement takes lots of patients and time before a decent sound can be comfortable. Plan to take into a music store but would like some input from you.

A 577 Bundy is - in proper repair - a decent allround instrument. As every clarinet it profits from a good mouthpiece (what is shipped with a clarinet is not always the best choice).
I'd buy a Hite Premiere or a Fobes Debut mpc (each under 30$), they're the best bet for such instruments. (I play both, for what it is worth, even on my noble Marigaux)

Thanks for you reply. Will check the status of condition at a repair shop and then look into the mouthpiece idea. Question about Switzerland ISP- if not to personal - is that home?
