It could be a cheap Indian/Chinese Boehm with some keys missing, or it could be an old Albert, which has all the keys in different positions.

Where is it missing the keys? DOes it have the group of four beside the right little finger? If so, it is a Boehm.

yeah, i did some researching and i found out it was a Eb albert clarinet. my band instructer had never seen or heard of one of these before. but, i guess we learn somehting new everyday. By any chance does anybody have a fingering chart for this clarinet?
