Pearled Plateau metal clarinet

[danthecontraman]

So I just sold this interesting metal clarinet that had Plateau keys which on it's own is very special but what was most interesting was the fact that it had pearls on those keys. The person who bought it plays mostly lower clarinets like contra or bass and is used to the covered keys. He intended to use it as his main Bb soprano due to how it'll be much easier to play than a regular Bb sop for him. I thought about keeping it but sold it instead. Just thought this might be interesting for some of the doublers in this forum. Here are some photos of the horn

What a sweet looking ride. I bought a plateau keyed clarinet to try some years back and wasn't impressed with the tone/sound. How did this one sound?

It wasn't actually in a playing condition but didn't look like it needed a lot of work. Lot's of evidence on the horn that it was a pro horn and not some student crap. I'll let you guys know once the horn is in playing condition with its new owner
