Selmer Paris Centered Tone Clarinet Circa 1955

Considered by some to be some of Selmer’s finest workmanship, we acquired this “CT” #Q2131 and lovingly restored it with new double bladder pads and corks. Please see the photographs. We believe it was made in 1955. This clarinet has had some professional wood repair to the bell tenon. No cracks, mechanism tight, raw nickel silver mechanism. It comes with original barrel, Selmer Paris mouthpiece, and good hard-shell case. Own the model made famous by Benny Goodman that is ideal for both jazz and classical playing. $950 plus shipping. 

Please note:

As professional repair technicians, our labor to completely overhaul a clarinet is approximately $250-$300. When you purchase one of our clarinets, it has been professionally overhauled with the mechanism tightened, new double skin pads, and new corks. While you can purchase as-is instruments for less, it is likely that you will have to invest in an overhaul either before playing them or shortly thereafter. We don’t cut corners with cheaper supplies or patchwork. When you compare our quality, you will understand why we don’t accept lower “make offers” on our instruments.
