Boosey & Hawkes Regent, E Flat Clarinet
This is a Resonite Boosey & Hawkes Eb clarinet which is a commission sale for Clarinets Direct.
The instrument has an impressive provenance having been owned by Colin Parr, and played by him during his time as second, and Eb clarinet, in the ROH orchestra at Covent Garden, before he went to the CBSO as Principal clarinet.
The Eb was, I believe, actually made by Selmer Bundy in the USA for B&H. The serial numbers are 9367, and the Resonite body shows no cracks or damage. The Nickel Silver plating shows some "cloudiness" but there is no wear. The clarinet has just been completely re-padded in skin pads by Clarinets Direct and is sold with our full 1 year warranty. The m'piece is an up-grade to a Lucien Bassi, and the original case is in good used condition. The Eb plays very well, and would make an ideal first Eb clarinet purchase.
