Of the few modern ones I've had in my hands and worked on they were all really sturdy clarinets with thick keywork - though I haven't seen one in years. Thus yours would have been a Conn/Artley. I'm sure there's hundred of Wiki pages going over who bought who when in the last 30 years. I think at that time UMI already bought WT Armstrong which would have been in 1981 ?īefore that I think Conn owned Artley which was about 1960? They were produced, I think when UMI owned them, from the same factory as the Armstrong clarinets. Pre-UMI and post-UMI (approx year 2000 when UMI bought Artley). But there were essentially at least 4 generations of Artleys. 17S, 18S, something else then the Prelude. That said, I did get a really interesting-read antique-Albert system clarinet for the Big Band I play in, and I am planning on learning its key layout, but I just need to get this musical out of the way before I clutter up my head with yet another fingering system.Īrtley had several modern models. I'm not planning on upgrading, since playing clarinet is not going to become a regular thing for me. So insights that you could provide Steve, into my horn or MPs would be greatly appreciated. For that I figure 1 MP will be challenge enough, why mess around with 2. I don't know what it plays like, since I've just been concentrating on relearning all my fingerings again-more or less done, just trying to keep the L&R pinkie notes straight in my head is a challenge-and developing my clarinet embouchure. I also have a Selmer HS*, but I haven't tried it. I have a couple of those for alto and tenor from back in the day, as they were quite popular, but I don't know if the one I have for the clarinet is a jazz piece or not. Maybe you could tell me something about that too. My MP is a late 1970s Herb Couf Artist 4*. It doesn't sound any different to the wooden Buffet I sit next to-mind you that guy too is a sax player, and not the world's strongest clarinet player. I'm just surprised at the warmth in sound that it has. Since it's a simulated wood grain, composite body of some kind, I know it's a student horn of some kind, so I'm wondering how they compare to what's out there in general. I was wondering Steve, if you could give me any info on this little beast. I had it into my tech, who only had to replace 2 pads before I started playing it again.
#Artley flute models serial#
(At lest if the serial # chart on the Selmer USA website is correct.) Looking at it, you would think it is new.
I remember ATT these instruments had a very good rep. I am quite amazed by this Artley 18S Prelude. I'm playing the Reed 3 book for Guys and Dolls. Then I gave up clarinet until about a month ago, when I picked it up again for a musical. I kept playing bass all throughout school and beyond into university. I played it for about a year, and then switched to the school bass. high, I got minty Artley 18S Prelude clarinet when I started my clarinet studies. Pete, Steve-whoever-please move to the appropriate sub-forum.
