It's my friend's daughter's Leblanc Bass Clarinet, s# 23xx.
She couldn't remember what happened to her horn but horn has one key(??) missing.
This missing part works when I press A and register key to play Bb.

Please check photos.

Need help to find this piece.

Thanks in advance.

Contact Morrie Backun. He bought a bunch of stuff when the Kenosha plant was closed. Photograph the key, the spot where the key goes and get as much info to him has possible. If Morrie doesn't have it he'll have a good Idea who might.

You'll need both the linkage piece and the rod screw (the rod screw probably backed out and then the lot got lost somewhere - rattle the case around to see if it's disappeared somewhere inside the lining). Then it's a case of having it fitted and regulated so the throat A key allows the correct vent to open in the speaker mechanism when throat Bb is played. Shouldn't be too much pf a problem to do that once you've sourced the missing parts.

I think these should be part nos. 6FR1232(S) and 6S3584. The (S) is for silver plate. I would check with a local repair facility and see if they can verify/order for you.
