Ridenour Lyrique Bb clarinet. Little used, but not serviced for about two years. However it plays nicely throughout the range.

This is a professional level orchestral clarinet. Very good quality case and two barrels.

Selling because I'm a jazz musician and so I've recently bought a full Boehm system clarinet.

NOTE: There is some discolouration to the ebonite, it has faded a little in the light. This is a natural occurrence and does not affect the integrity or playability of the clarinet in any way. It has not however turned olive green!

Info from the Ridenour website:

The use of ebonite also results in much greater consistency in production as well as providing bore dimensions that remain stable in a wide range of seasonal, temperature and humidity conditions. In addition, the ebonite construction provides the performer with a clarinet that is virtually worry free. The pure, natural hard rubber of the Lyrique body will not warp or crack. Though it is made from all natural materials its' construction does not require the sacrifice of the life of a slow growing, endangered tree.
