Description
Here's a beautiful late 1953 vintage '424N' model Bb Boehm system clarinet by C.G. Conn of USA. This model is almost the same as the 444N - the Artie Shaw model - and is a wonderful player for the Jazz clarinetist or doubler on a budget!Its made of fine grained grenadilla wood with nickel alloy keys and a whopping .600" bore! It is in good condition for age, no body cracks or repairs, just a couple small repaired hairlines in the bell tenon. It has been disassembled, soaked in oil, swedged and countersunk, body, keys and posts buffed, new Pisoni leather pads and corks installed. Big, powerful tone, good intonation, even through registers with comfortable key-work. I am well pleased with this instrument! Comes with period case in solid condition

Why Vintage Clarinets?
I believe that vintage clarinets represent one of the most under-priced and underutilized resources on the market.
While there is some junk out there, there are many makes and models that are good to excellent players if properly overhauled and that will provide satisfaction to collectors, students and even pro players while saving the buyer hundreds of dollars! Nickel and grenadilla wood are increasingly finite resources and the craftsmanship on some of these old horns makes them a real pleasure to own. Why not try a vintage clarinet from the
