Hi,
I just got my clarinet overhauled for a Christmas present from my son. Wow! what a great job the shop did! I haven't played it since about 1972 and haven't played it regularly since 1968. I'm having a lot of fun. According to the shop, I own a very old Buffet. My dad bought it for my in about 1962 when I made 1st chair 1st clarinet. He purchased a "more open" mouthpiece for me from Bob Mario at about the same time. I wanted to play Dixieland music and did. The only identifier on the Clarinet that I can find is the number 26.116. That's it. On the mouthpiece it is inscribed with S/S on the back and toward the bottom "Bob Mario" Additionally, after looking at it further I noticed a very light inscription 045. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Bob
