I have a professional Buffet B Flat Clarinet, SN 70915 mfg'd in 1962. It has been maintained and I still play it. Can anyone tell me its value? Thanks

Depending on the condition of your instrument, it could be sold for $500 - $1000. If you take it for a overhaul, cleaned, pads and corks replaced, spring tension adjusted, it could be sold for higher value.
I have been told that the grenadilla wood for making the clarinet in the ninteen sixties is more dense and produces better sound that the clarinets made today.
