Does anyone have experience with the Q Series Seller Paris Bass Clarinet? I have one and am looking into getting it up to par so I can get some playing time out of it. I'm in no way a bass clarinet specialist, but I would love to get this vintage clarinet playing.
Also, what bass clarinet mouthpiece would be a good professional level piece?

These are very nice basses, so well worth spending the money on having them put into top notch form. I overhauled one of these a few years back and it had a nice broad sound.
Try some of Walter Grabner's mouthpieces out along with as many others as you can to see which you like best.

I'm not really in the correct disposition financially to try out several mouthpieces- what would be a good "short list" of bass mouthpieces to try?
Also, if it is already in decent playing condition (with which it is, to my estimation), how much money is normal to spend on a bass of this caliber to properly adjust and regulate to move it into excellent playing condition once again?
