Alexandre clarinets (from Alexandre Selmer, Henri Selmer’s brother who
returned to france to help in clarinet production) also supported F. Barbier
clarinets. Florentin Barbier factory was sold to Selmer paris at one time.
Later on it was noted that Barbier instruments may have been SML stencils
(identified by the metal lower joint socket) when they were stamped Sponsored by
Selmer and made in Paris. Later Barbier production was moved to Elkhart,
and resembled the earliest Signets.

Selmer USA has manufactured various clarinets under the Signet brand since
about 1945 and going back to the early 1920s. Selmer USA actually manufactured Signet clarinets before World War
II (per customer 2/18/2012). The pre WWII Signet was quite
interesting as it had several pro features (swoopy keywork which allows ease of
adjustment). Please see the new pictures below. These have almost always been inferior to the Selmer-Paris
models, but during WWII, Paris clarinets were, for obvious reasons, not
available here

The Selmer USA serial numbers for the forties, in the list that I have, show
a gap between 30,000 (10/15/40) and 33,000 (6/1/47) presumably because of
the war.

Selmer USA began making (or selling) Manhatten metal clarinets and Manhatten wood clarinets in the 1920s
and/or 1930s.

Selmer USA models are from lowest to highest model: Signet 100, Signet
Special and Signet Soloist

Selmer Manhatten – Manhatten clarinet sponsored by Selmer

This lines of clairnets was primarily a student and intermediate level.

There were made during a time when Selmer USA was still headquartered in New
York which they then moved to Elkhart, Indiana.

I do not have much information about these lines yet gathered,
email me for more information or come back at a later date.

Check out the register key. The register pip is raised like Leblancs
but the register key is very recognizable in it’s shape.

Bundy

Wood Bundys started production in 1941.

Plastic Bundys started production in 1948.
With World War II cutting off the import of Selmer Paris instruments George
Bundy started the line of of Bundy student instruments then added the Signet
intermediate line. But some of the first Bundy wood clarinets were
apparently Selmer Paris factory owned instruments in disguise. So production of Bundy
clarinets would have started before their supply was cut off (or after the war
?). Keep in mind that Selmer Paris had their own Selmer Paris factory in
addition to 2 other factories such as Barbier. I’m “guessing” the Bundy’s
were from the Barbier or other plant and not the authentic Selmer factory.

But these cannot be “Selmer Paris” factory instruments because at the same
approximate time Selmer Paris had 4 posts for the throat keys, and this one has
one shared post. I would guess this is from the Barbier or the other
factory.

Signet Specials

Signet Specials started production in 1941 or 1946. The early Signet
Specials has the insignia on the barrel as well as on the other pieces.
The barrel insignia was stopped around 1955. The early Signet Specials had a
guide for the top trill key which was gone in 1955 but reappeared in 1960.
In 1955 the tan leather cases were introduced but the inside arrangement and
outside label was different. The badge on the 1960 case had Selmer in red
letters. By the late 1960’s the case was black plastic or fiberglass and had
Signet in a circle.

Serial Number 74991 Signet Special: Barrel pivot screws,
except for the UJ lower ring keys. Straight gauge steel needle springs,
the throat Bb uses a needle spring which going width-wise instead of the normal
flat spring seen on most clarinets.

.590 = 15.00mm top / .575 = 13.83mm lower bore

1958 Selmer Special (SN
33609)

Selmer Special sn 65168 – approximately 1967

The Signet line (Soloist, Special, 100) use barrel pivot screws. The
idea behind the barrel screws is that with and exact fit of the keywork between
posts that the keywork would just pivot on the exact fitness of the barrel screw
to the bore of the keywork. The “A” throat key also uses a needle spring
in this example.

Mazzeo
– Sometime in the mid 1960’s the Mazzeo Signet Special models
(see the brochures below) were produced along with the regular model with the serial numbers being the
same series as the regular model.

Mazzeo Mechanisms
The Mazzeo mechanism on the Signet allows the player to switch between “Mazzeo”
mode and regular Boehm. The first picture has a Bundy Mazzeo (on the
bottom) and a Signet Mazzeo (on the top)

The Signet mechanism (left) shows it in the Mazzeo position. It has a
knurled end “plunger” mechanism to turn the Mazzeo system on/off. To
dsconnect you simply push the mechanism in. To reconnect you pull it out.
Mazzeo information, brochures and pictures provided by S. Page, UK

Signet Special 100 evolved from the Signet Special sometime in the 1970s with
the serial number list continuing as before. Around this time the Signet
Resonite was also produced.

Selmer Soloist

The Soloist possible had their own set of serial numbers starting possible in
the 1950s.

Selmer USA supposedly was not making clarinets from 1944 through 1946

The Soloist had some nice features such as
[1] the thumb hole was a screw in cap. This allowed technician to easily
properly align it inside the bore and more importantly the “cap” part made a
nice tight seal. Normally many are push in and one has to use wax to seal
it as an extra measure.

[2] the register vent was also screw in and sealed very well without having
to use a wax to seal it.

[3] A rarity which is found on the Soloist and Special is that the A throat
key uses a needle spring versus nearly every other manufacturer and model uses a
flat spring.

[4] Later Signet Soloist had a nicer deeper imprint of the emblem and name
than above.

How much is a 1978 bundy resonite selmar clarinet worth serial number 964832?

I have to say : not very much; practically worthless except for a beginner; and ONLY if it is in good condition. The Bundy was very popular in the late 50's when it first came on the scene and was advertised as indestructible. However, it proved to be the opposite: it broke easily if dropped on a hard service and could not be repaired very well after a break. I had one that actually melted…

Is a 1948 mint condition Selmer France Model K clarinet worth a lot I also have the original case mint condition?

If you mean the series number is K.. , then the clarinet is not from 1948 but from the early 1930's (a 1948 Selmer would be N..). As such it would be of interest to people who prefer early Selmers, and if in really good condition it might be worth around £500 (sterling). Personally I think the K's and L's are the best they ever made, but not everybody would agree!
