Help with a B&H Marlborough

Author: BillyWingnut  Date:   2010-05-31 08:51 Hi everyone. I'm in need of some help with my search for two replacement parts for a Boosey & Hawkes Marlborough that I recently bought on Ebay. The serial is 226124 (early '60s?) and the instrument was made in England. It is wooden and in very good condition under 40 odd years of muck. Keywork is in nickel silver. I'm a student on the Woodwind repair course at Newark in the UK and this is my first non college instrument restoration and my main problem is that the thumb rest fitted is not original and the barrel supplied is from a plastic regent. Does anyone know of a source for either item? The barrel from a Regent of the time would be basically identical as far as I know, certainly the tenon rings on the plastic barrel I have are a match for the ring on the bell and foot joint. Hope you can help.
