Special Amati Kraslice Clarinet Author: Date: 2002-07-13 01:01 I just got a Special Amati Kraslice Clarinet from my mom's friend who bought it from a Ukrainian Composer who bought it for his son, but his son's wife died so he sold it. I am just wondering if these instruments are worth keeping. Here are some information I found out about it. It is made of Grenadillia wood, the serial number is 702414, the bell is made out of resin, on the bell it says 'Special Amati-Kraslice Made in Czechoslovakia' With out the quotation marks. There are no other markings accept the serial number on both joints, and a number 6 on the mouthpiece. The case is fake leather and very big. The clarinet needs the pads replaced and some corks under the keys.
The popular Classic Vintage Saxophones Serial number list. Buffet Crampon et Compagnie is perhaps most famous for their clarinets. The saxophones are.
So if anybody knows this clarinet or heard of it. Please tell me how much it might be worth or how good is it. Thanks, BassClari90 RE: Special Amati Kraslice Clarinet Author: Date: 2002-07-13 04:31 A bit off topic, I know, but I believe that the country split into Slovakia and the Czech Republic, not Bohemia. RE: Special Amati Kraslice Clarinet Author: Date: 2002-07-13 06:13 Rob is quite right about the split.
I believe Amati clarinets have undergone considerable improvement since then. I do wish Quijote would increase his vocabulary beyond words like 'crap' and be a little more reasonably descriptive.
I assume he would like us to understand what he is trying to say. Extreme expressions do not allow for shade of meaning and are not very helpful. RE: Special Amati Kraslice Clarinet Author: Date: 2002-07-13 11:41 Interesting that Q who seems to be from Eastern Europe would make that error about the split. Personally I'm not hung up on his use of english as he probably has translation problems RE: Special Amati Kraslice Clarinet Author: Date: 2002-07-13 20:25 Amati has undergone a number of major changes in the past several years. Simulator pogruzchika 2009 torrent. I would not want to buy an instrument such as the one you own, because it is likely quite inferior to the ones manufactured after the wholesale political changes in eastern/central europe. Amati is no longer state owned, they can now put some profits back into the factory instead if having them gobbled up by the state, and their newer clarinets seem just fine and remarkably inexpensive to me. I now own an ACL-602 less than one year old which has superb intonation and quite consistent tone quality.
GBK, who historically has never owned anything but a Buffet, now also has a new full Boehm A Amati of which he speaks very highly. Irregular intonation CAN be repaired. If the instrument is otherwise mechanically sound. It might be worth doing. The difference between a wood bell and a composition bell is hardly worth worrying aout, IMO. Others may attack me for that.
Regards, John RE: Special Amati Kraslice Clarinet Author: Date: 2002-07-13 22:16 J McAulay is quite correct. The newer Amati clarinets are a completely different species than the older ones.
