Hello everyone,
there's a Bundy Eb clarinet I'm going to buy and as with most of these, they're not located in Europe - but I need it overhauled as quickly as possible.
Does someone happen to have the pad sizes at hand? That'd be very much appreciated.
Best regards
Christian

If I remember correctly:
8.5mm x 2
10mm x 10
12mm x 1
15.5mm x 4
But I'm not sure on those numbers as it's been a long time since I had a Bundy Eb.

I don't know the sizes but those sound a bit strange. It's unlikely that the larger pads are 15.5mm and the most common size is 10mm. 15.5mm is a bit small even for non-stepped pads on most clarinets, while 10mm is the most common size for stepped pads. Still possible that the Bundy has relatively large small keys and small large keys... I really don't remember but worth double checking.

Yeah, the „standard“ outside diameter on the upper joint‘s pad cups is t 10,3mm at least for the Bb, so the pads won’t be larger 9.5mm. I‘d assume the Eb has similarily sized or smaller pad cups.
Oh, should’ve mentioned: the question referred to non-stepped pads.
Thanks for your efforts regardless.

I checked all the cups on the Bundy today. Their inner diamiter is always outside dia. -1mm.
11x9,2mm
2x7,8mm
4x16mm
