my 1st Penzel Mueller

Well I just finished up working on my 1st Penzel Mueller clarinet.

Although I've heard about them before, I never had a chance to lay my hands on one. I picked one up locally from a friend that needed a bit of work, and today I finally finished up putting it back together, new pads and all.

I still need to tweek the key adjustments a bit, but wow! I wasn't actually thinking it would sound quite this nice! In comparison to the big 3 French companies this one really would hold its own.

It doesn't have a model name at all stamped, just Penzel Mueller New York.

The serial number starts with GB.

Its a stadard 17 key 6 ring Boehm clarinet.

When did they start with model names?
Any idea on when it was made?

I'm gonna spend some more time with this one, can't wait!

klook

PS Big thanks to forum member Steve for hooking me up with some pivot screws I needed to finish this up!
