Noblet Eb E flat Clarinet -- Fully Refurbished & Ready to Play

Description

Absolutely gorgeous instrument in amazing vintage condition, this advanced quality instrument plays beautifully top to bottom with very good intonation.
The grenadilla wood is very high quality, with no apparent cracks or other serious damage, see photos.
Fully refurbished in 2020 by The Vintage Clarinet Doctor, it
is in great vintage condition, with good tenons and chimneys. It has been disassembled, body soaked in oil, keys swedged and countersunk (to remove lost motion), body polished, keys buffed, all new pads and cork installed, and reassembled and adjusted for optimal playability.
In terms of background,
this is a Noblet Eb soprano clarinet made by Leblanc in 1973-74 based on its serial number and logo. The key work is in good order throughout. The pads are all sealing well, and all corks are also good. I have found this instrument to
play beautifully with a warm, open tone, even through the registers, comfortable ergonomics and excellent intonation.
Includes original case (in good condition, but showing its age and some wear as indicated in the photos), but no mouthpiece.
