Anyone know where I can find just a blank upper joint to a Buffet Crampon B10 Bb Clarinet?

It would probably be cheaper to buy a used B10 than a new upper joint. How badly is it damaged? Most damage can be repaired.

The bottom tenon is severely broken, I'm in the middle of rebuilding it, but it would be easier to just use a blank upper joint with posts.

Have you considered replacing the tenon?

If you have a lathe it can be a fairly simple procedure. In my humble opinion it would be much easier than fitting the keywork to a new upper joint.

Give Dawkes in Maidenhead a ring. They can often come up with the goods!

They haven't got any B10 joints listed on there, but maybe they could order one.
