Ok, I hope this helps, lol. If anyone could give me a site or something like that would help. I don't really want to have to go down to the music shop and have to have someone take a look at it, but if thats what it takes to get it done, I will.
Any way, I took your advice and put a better subject up. Thanks (for a third time Ü)

i am pretty sure that the local music shop will be no help whatsoever (unless there's a resident clarinetaholic in attendance), so hopefully someone on sneezy will be able to tell you where to find this info out. What i want to know is, what does "1o1" mean, is it some kind of 21st century slang that i'm suposed to get? (i'm kind of out of touch these days) And why do you have "U umlaut" in the heading and after "for a third time"?....... is this another internet thing, or maybe it's from "text message" talk (do you guys have that in the US?). i hate feeling left out!

LOL - Laughing Out Loud or Lots of Luck.
I think the umlaut over the U is a couphe of eyes over a big smile
This is the 3rd time he's asked the exact same question. The Hyden isn't listed in any of my references. Dating a clarinet that's not from one of the big manufacturers is almost impossible - if you're liucky the clarinet will be listed in some reference and the mark may help in determining an age range. Serial number records don't seem to survive when a company goes defunct - and are spotty sometimes even for the surviving companies.

Kyle - Could it be that the name is Haydn, a famous 17-1800's composer? Many music-related names are used on "stencil" instruments, made, without names, numbers etc, by a ?small? maker for sale by another, often by music stores. Some of the olders I've seen are reasonably good. The Chinese makers now are using this method of marking, often theirs are of quite poor quality. Luck, Don
