 My friend is interested in Sammy Rimington's clarinet, which looks like a period instrument, he said. 
Does anyone know who makes the clarinet, and how he can access to the maker? 
 
Thanks in advance.

 What's your definition of the standard New Oeleans tone Ken?

 Maybe Edmund Hall, or Irving Fazola -- what Pete Fountain would like to be.

 Not bad role models - but Sammy probably sounds more like George Lewis.

 I heard him life last year on a local New Orleans jazz-club festival, and he's probably one of the best in his style. 
 
But being a clarinet player who likes the classical sound of a clarinet, I'm afraid I cannot appreciate his sound. 
 
As I said, great in his style however.
