This vintage Big Band era Selmer professional clarinet was made in 1945 to celebrate Selmer's 55th anniversary and was limited to only 2,000 instruments.
It had an outstanding repair on the upper joint and a hairline crack repair on at some point in it's 80 year history.
It has been meticulously taken care of by Better Than New's Travis G. and plays extremely well. Pads are still perfectly sealing. This clarinet barks with its large bore design and I used it with gypsy jazz ensembles for about 10 years.
