Re: Eb clarinet

I bought two effers from ebay earlier this year. The first, a Martin Freres, may not be worth fixing up as one key was broken and so badly soldered the pin won't line up. However the other, a Jean du Blaye, has just been restored by Jeremy Soule and appears to be an excellent little horn. I bought it mostly for my seven year old son who wants to start clarinet. He's a pretty good pianist for his age so this should be good for him. It only cost $18.50 because the bell was broken, but I found another for only $40. The real job was finding a case! Keep us informed how you are progressing. I really look forward to being able to use mine in our ensemble, though my hands are not that small. I certainly can't say I've acheived much with it except to be banished to the garage when I try to play it.
