Noblet, by Leblanc, Artist C Clarinet
This fine condition Noblet Artist C Clarinet, made by Leblanc, is a commission sale for Clarinets Direct. This instrument is the professional Artist model 50 Noblet clarinet, with all parts made of finest unstained Grenadilla wood, unlike some of the cheaper models in the Noblet range. The matching serial nos. are B30805. The Silver plate is in excellent condition, with no discernible wear, aaprt from the rear thumb bush. The Grenadilla wood is in fine condition throughout with no cracks or damage. The instrument has used fish skin pads, which are sealing well. The bore, in common with all other Leblanc made C clarinets, is 14.50mm. The instrument tunes well with the supplied Grabner K13 mouthpiece, but will also play well with any modern standard French bore m'piece. This means most players can play their regular Bb m'piece successfully. The gig bag style case is in good condition and the instrument comes with a K&M collapsible stand and string style ligature. In summation; this is a fine tuning C, an entry level professional model, which would match well with the finest French instruments currently available.
