Noblet N, number 3 mouthpiece

Hi All,

Noobie here. I just recently started playing clarinet. I’m in my mid sixties and play other instruments such as guitar. I played tenor saxophone in middle school, I read music both bass and treble clef and am generally fairly proficient.

I recently bought a used Noblet N with a Noblet number 3 mouthpiece. The serial number of the clarinet is A97381 which from what I can tell dates it to 1980. I’m using Rico number 2 reeds in the orange box and have not ventured into the mysteries of filing them. I’m playing each day a little longer and feel my embouchure is getting stronger and I’m increasing my range while decreasing squeaks on a daily basis. 😎

Does this seem a reasonable reed/mouthpiece combination for a beginner?Im not working with a teacher so don’t have an easy way to know.

Thanks in advance,

Paula
