![]() ![]() I've also come across a hard rubber Edgware that had porous, flimsy brass keywork with really shoddy nickel plating. The gotcha with Booseys is some Regents made just after WWII were built with Mazak keywork that's prone to breakage and near-impossible to repair. 593"(!).ī&H clarinets are well-known for high-quality wood that's unusually resistant to cracking. Other Boosey models are configured with a bore that "only" measures. ![]() 600" bores, and when encountered for sale are often found in a B-flat and A matched set. The pinnacle of the B&H clarinet family is the 1010, also known as the "Symphony". Still, they made their own "English Bore" clarinets up until the Buffet acquisition, and they are preferred to this day by many clarinetists throughout the Commonwealth. B&H is known more here in the USA for its fine brass instruments made in the British Brass Band tradition. Thanks to Greg G for this wonderful summary information about B&H clarinets!ī&H is little-known in the US apart from the fact that they once acquired Buffet-Crampon.
