Linton 3W Bb Clarinet, made by Robert Malerne in France. Grenadilla wood, nickel silver keys. Purchased from Larry Naylor of Naylor Custom Woodwinds in March 2001. Larry had performed an immersion rebuild prior to my purchase of the instrument, and has since replaced a couple pads. Most recently, I had the instrument checked by a local tech in 2021 to assure good playing condition, and he performed a couple minor adjustments.

Upper joint has all cork pads. I have periodically oiled the bore using a natural oil mixture from Doctor's Products. I play tested the instrument before posting this ad, but otherwise have not played the instrument regularly since sometime in 2002, when I switched to Selmer instruments.

This clarinet was made by Robert Malerne (Paris) for Linton sometime in the mid-1960s; I have documentation from Linton confirming this. Very narrow bore: ~ 0.560” at center joint. Articulated C#/G# mechanism. Ligature and cap are included but no mouthpiece - I highly recommend play testing mouthpieces to find something that works specifically for you.

Hard case (made by Vito, a brand name of Leblanc) is included. Liner has cork grease and keywork stains but is entirely serviceable. There is a pocket for small items inside the top cover.
