Legris / Jules Legris A
The four pictures at the top were from an eBay listing. That may have been a Bb Legris. Amy's clarinet reviewed below is an A.Serial #none found Thanks to Amy for letting me recondition and review this!Barrel: 63.3mmBore LH joint top: 14.5mmBore LH joint at bottom: 14.6mmIntonation results taken when playing loud and not lipping. See how to interpret these results on the Model Comparison Page.
I needed to used a different barrel and with the pulled out distance it was 60mm in total length, and zero pulled out in the center.
Intonation summary: Not good, but I am hampered by my lack of knowledge of Albert system A clarinets. This would require some expert work to make it play in tune. Although maybe all it needs is a historically correct mouthpiece. My modern mouthpiece (Chedeville Prime) does not have the right bore characteristics to bring out the best for this instrument.
Key work quality: Nice. Good quality for the time this was made.
This clarinet is most appropriate for: A clarinet collector, or an Albert system player needing an A clarinet.
