Hello everyone!
I´ve been following this clarinet board for a long time now.
So decided to join because of a little problem i came by lately. A local instrument repair-shop has a really nice Noblet 40 all restored and repadded, but...
The instrument has different serial numbers on the joints. What i mean is that the lower joint has been replaced by a similar Noblet lower joint, but its a couple of years newer according to the serial. All the other parts have matching serials with the upper joint. They actually told me that when i asked about the low price. Were they right to be frightened off? Or could this be a bargain?
Now i am really interested in that instrument and its quite cheap too so i was wondering is there a catch here? Could it mean problems in tuning or reaching the upper altissimo or anything like that. Any suggestion would be quite helpful about similar cases..
