Does anyone know if Leblanc will sell me a "good ol' fashioned" clarinet bell and/or barrels for my newer Symphonie?
Thanks for the help!

Just out of curiosity, why would you want them? The Backun Symphonie performs beautifully with the Backun barrels and bell.... the ones it was designed to work with. Mine came with upgraded barrels to Backun Traditional barrels. They're even better.

Hi Clint,
You should be able to get a standard Concerto bell or a bell for a Noblet 45. There were plenty of both in November when I left Leblanc. Contact Michael Holmes (mholmes@conn-selmer.com) and he should be able to get you in touch with the right person.

Hey Jeff,
Just in response to your question, I really like my backun products and have purchased a few additional barrels and a bell from them, BUT when traveling from an extremely dry climate to more humid areas I need a more stable material to use sometimes. I am trying to prevent from altering these items anymore than I already have.

Scott,
I just noticed that you work with Wolfgang! Did you work on my clarinet over the Christmas break?
Just wondering,

Hi Clint,
Wolfgang and I are just getting the USA side of the business together so I regret I was not involved with the work done on your instruments. We expect to be up and running full force by ICA and you will soon be able to get his products and services here in the States in a more timely manner.
Cheers - Scott
