Hi,
Today my family was looking around an antique shop to kill some time, and I happened to stumble across this pre-1930s clarinet (pictures attached). I am going to return tomorrow to test it out, but until then, I have a few questions.
- Is there any way to identify the manufacturer of the clarinet? I didn't see a logo stamped on it like most modern clarinets have.
- Would this be fingered more like a Boehm or Oehler system clarinet? I'm not as familiar with old key systems. I suppose I'll find out tomorrow.
- When might this clarinet be from? It says it's from sometime before the 1930s, but that's all.
- Is there any chance a modern Boehm-system mouthpiece will fit? I could also try it with the old mouthpiece (which looks to be a wooden mouthpiece.)
