Selmer Series 9 Bass Clarinets. Pro quality?

Author: bradfordlloyd

I've searched the BBoard, and found a few comments but no definitive verdict (or even a preponderance of evidence) about the quality of Selmer (Paris) Series 9 bass clarinets.

Has anyone played them or tested them and have opinions on whether they are "professional quality" instruments?

(Note: The one I am considering is from the 1960s, grenadilla wood with nickel keywork, in good shape, double vent, has a two piece neck with vent. I have no been able to play test it yet.)

Any experiences with these horns, advice or guidance is much appreciated.

Thanks!
