INSTRUMENT SALES

Welcome to the instrument sales page! Here, I will post pictures and information about instruments that I am selling. I have been buying old instruments and repairing them for some time now, and have amassed a number of instruments that I am now looking to get rid of. I mostly specialize in clarinets which is most of what you will see up here, but there is a chance that a saxophone or two may show up on here. If you see an instrument you are interested in, feel free to contact me by email at jaredmburch@gmail.com. I cannot promise consistent stock as I am going to get my masters degree in clarinet performance and will have limited time to work on instruments. Also, I DO NOT ship instruments. Local pickup in the Chattanooga/Cleveland, TN area only!

DISCLAIMER: I am not a professionally trained woodwind technician. I am self taught and merely do this work as a hobby and as an opportunity to practice and learn instrument repair skills. These instruments are completely my own work done using my own methods, my best judgement, and my preferences as a player which may not align other people’s needs or standards. Though they are sold as playable with new pads and tenon corks installed where needed, these instruments may need additional adjustments in order to be in the most optimal playing condition for your preferences or needs. These instruments are sold AS IS with NO RETURNS, and any additional repairs or adjustments that may be needed after the sale are the responsibility of the buyer. Additionally, there are no warranties, payment plans or other guarantees offered on anything for sale on this page. Reasonable offers may be accepted depending on the amount of time that the instrument has been for sale, but generally lower offers are not accepted and prices stay as listed.

If you are interested in any of the instruments seen here or want more details, send me an email at jaredmburch@gmail.com or visit me on Instagram @jared_burchfield_music

1950’s Selmer Bundy Resonite Bb Clarinet

This clarinet is a Selmer Bundy USA Resonite Bb Clarinet. It is a plastic resin student model, and it appears to be one of the earlier generations of the Bundy clarinet line from about the 1950s approximately. I have cleaned and polished all of the keys and the body of the instrument and installed new felt pads from Instrument Clinic on this horn as well as replacing appropriate key corks. All of the original tenon corks work as intended, so they were not replaced. Also included with this horn are a Selmer Goldentone 3 Mouthpiece, a metal ligature and mouthpiece cap, a cleaning cloth, a lyre and a Selmer Bundy hard case which has been cleaned to the best of my ability. The case did not have a handle when I received it and does not have one now. Though the case is a bit rough, the instrument is in good shape and would be a great budget option for a beginner or casual player and has everything you need to get started. I am asking $90 for this clarinet AS IS with NO RETURNS! For more details and additional photos, please email jaredmburch@gmail.com

Silvertone Wooden Intermediate Bb Clarinet

This clarinet is a Silvertone 2525 Bb Clarinet. It is a wooden intermediate model, and research suggests that it was made for Sears or Montgomery Ward department stores by Selmer USA in the 1960s-1970s. As far as I can tell, the instrument is mechanically similar to the Selmer Signet Soloist clarinets and has similar playing characteristics as well. I have cleaned and polished all of the keys and the body of the instrument and installed new felt pads and replaced appropriate key corks on this horn. The lower and center tenon corks have been replaced, but the top one is still original and works as intended. Also included with this horn are a stock mouthpiece, a metal ligature and mouthpiece cap, and a hard case which has been cleaned to the best of my ability.  The instrument is in playable condition with no cracks, and would be a great budget option for a beginner, casual player and has everything you need to get started. I am asking $150 for this clarinet AS IS with NO RETURNS! For more details and additional photos, please email jaredmburch@gmail.com
