Been trying to find out who actually made this clarinet. I've never heard of
SIL_VA_LAE before except re. mouth pieces. It is wood. Great key works. Made in
France. Ser.# 4402.
Need your help….Jim Riggs

I love guessing games so I'm guessing either Martin Freres or Malerne. If the crows foot has a screw adjustment I'd say more (but not totally) likely Martin Freres.

Are all the sockets lined? I think I've only seen this on Cabart (pre Loree takeover) clarinets.
