Not to shanghai my own post, but Ive got a story about a Leblanc LL. On Craigs list someone was selling an LL
. As it turned out the seller was a few blocks over from where I lived.
We made arraignments for me to come over .
The lady was selling her Daughters LL as she no longer played it.
It was a stunning Clarinet, very beautiful with a mother of pearl inlay.
I tried it out along with my Normandy that I had brought along and to be honest the Normandy blew the LL out of the water volume wise as well as tone.
The LL seemed to have a stuffy sound.
I do recall that the LL seemed to be a very narrow bore Clarinet, or at least compared to my Normandy.
I left without buying the LL.
Perhaps it needed work, who knows
