Bidspirit auction | A Signet Selmer Wooden Clarinet

A Signet Selmer Wooden Clarinet with Case and Electronic Pickup - A Signet brand clarinet manufactured by The Selmer Company. The instrument is constructed with a dark wood body and features nickel or silver-plated keywork in a traditional Boehm system configuration. The clarinet is disassembled into five primary sections: mouthpiece with a black plastic cap and metal ligature, barrel, upper joint, lower joint, and bell. The bell features an engraved circular emblem containing the Signet logo. A notable modification is present on the lower joint, consisting of a black rectangular electronic pickup mount with three circular ports and a sliding control, likely intended for an amplification system. The instrument is housed in its original black hard-shell case, which bears a Signet metal badge and is printed with The Selmer Company on the lower right of the lid. A vintage retailer sticker for Windblowers Woodwind and Brass of Nottingham, UK, is affixed to the exterior. Accessories include a black cleaning swab and several reed cases.
