Sam.
I have a question you might be able to answer for me. I’m restoring an older D.Noblet clarinet SN 48020. The question: it is marked above the Noblet stamp on the top joint ‘Special’. I haven’t ever in 50 years seen this Noblet model. Have you ever restored/repaired a Noblet Special? If so, what did you think about the clarinet. The wood on this clarinet is absolutely beautiful. And one more thing about this clarinet, it has a plastic bell, also with the D.Noblet stamp.

Hi Jim
I did some research for you and found little on the “Special” marking on the D. Noblet. From the description it sounds like a Model 27 with an ebonite bell but your serial number indicates around 1965. Let me know if you find out any other info on it. Thanks for your question. Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.
Sam
