Hello all, recently I've got given a Bb clarinet. I'm pretty sure it's wood. I have never seen this brand before, and it looks and feels like it's a pretty old clarinet. I have attached a few pictures.

I would like know if it is worth sending it to a technician to get it overhauled- is it worth keeping as a spare clarinet? I have already a professional model clarinet that I use daily.

I've heard people say that old clarinets can have a really good bore and hence can have a really good sound- is this generally true? and if it hasn't been properly maintained over the years, does it affect the wood?

Thank you!
