Penzel Mueller Pacemaker Intermediate Model Clarinet Circa 1940s
Penzel Mueller was a fine old American company that operated until the 1950s. Their clarinets were considered among the best U.S.-made instruments, and several professional clarinetists played them, including Woodie Herman. We are offering this Penzel Mueller Pacemaker Bb clarinet. We estimate this #U3605B was made in the 1940s. We restored this with new pads and corks. The mechanism is tight, with no cracks. Raw nickel-plated keys. Comes with a case and Noblet hard rubber mouthpiece. $395 plus shipping. Please see the photographs. Please note: As professional repair technicians, our labor to completely overhaul a clarinet is approximately $250-$300. When you purchase one of our clarinets, it has been professionally overhauled with the mechanism tightened, new double skin pads, and new corks. While you can purchase as-is instruments for less, you will likely have to invest in an overhaul before playing it or shortly thereafter. We don’t cut corners with cheaper supplies or patchwork. W
