 How old is my Selmer Paris Bass Clarinet?
Author: Dawn Anthes

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone could tell me the age of my Selmer Paris Low C bass clarinet. I bought it a couple years ago used, and I was told it was about 10 years old then, but I wanted to find some more specific information. I checked the serial number list here, and I checked the Selmer site and I couldn't find anything.

The serial number is C8787

I know that periodicly Selmer will change their basses a bit and change the model number. Does anyone have any idea what the model would be for this instrument?

Many thanks!

Why don't you ask directly Selmer Paris? Their fax number:

33-1-43572495
good luck

Javier

Dawn - According to my ser # date list, which also is on sneezy "Equipment , How old is My", your BC was made in the time range of 1981-5, I would interpolate it as 1983. I have a W series Sel BC , which matches the serial no.- date listing, apparent for all Sel Paris clarinets. A very good horn. Don

Thanks very much! I had looked at the "how old is my..." section, but was having trouble interpreting it.
