Re: RM Malerne Bass Clarinet help

I played a Conn one-piece hard rubber clarinet in high school that was said to be a Malerne stencil. It had a automatic double register key, and was in every sense a professional instrument.

After the Eb contra-alto player graduated, I played the Selmer rosewood contra-alto. It only had a single register key, and the altissimo range was limited. I much preferred the Conn.
