G. LEBLANC PARIS, PROFESSIONAL ALTO CLARINET, £995

This is a very fine condition G. Leblanc Paris, Alto Clarinet in Grenadilla wood, to low Eb. The German Silver plated key work is excellent throughout with no wear. The bell has a few minor dings but no dents, these are entirely commensurate with normal use and have no effect on the response, which is excellent. The crook is in good condition and shows no damage. The wood is also in good condition, though there is one old, extremely well repaired surface crack to the upper joint: It runs into the first trill key hole, see photos 4 & 6. Though the crack does not go through to the bore, it has been pinned no less than 6 times. The repair is completely stable, and we have thoroughly checked for seal in our workshop. The Alto has just been completely overhauled by us in Pisoni Premium Deluxe Tan Leather pads , and is sold with our full 1 year warranty. The matching serial nos. are 4994. The case is the original with scuffs to the exterior and some tears to the interior lining, but still fully serviceable. The m'piece is a Selmer S, in very good condition.
