It has been a good number of years since I played a Leblanc Double LL. Bought a Selmer CL220 on ebay, but it needs some pads, spring adjustments, etc.....otherwise wood is in great condition, so is gold plating. FIRST: anyone know someone I can mail this to who really knows this instrument and can overhaul and adjust? SECOND: is this instrument "worth it"? THIRD: anyone on this board played a CL220? Thoughts?

I can help you with the repair and set up but i'm in Australia. Any wooden clarinet is worth some attention from a repairer. The real danger is softening/ wear on the tone hole chimneys which can be levelled but carefully. Go for it!

Scotty:
I don't know where you are, but Ellis Music here in Vermont is a Selmer dealer and has what appears to be an excellent repair center. You may want to contact them.
MOO (My Opinion Only),
Matt

OK--will follow up on it. Wish someone new if this is a really good MODEL, generally speaking, to put more money into it.
