I play a Leblanc LL. It's nice and free blowing with a warm somewhat spread tone. Comfy keywork. Good for doubling as it plays more like a sax than some other makes. Would love to get an old silver King. Lester Young recorded one or two tunes on the silver King. Best jazz sound I ever heard from a clarinet. The story goes that after someone stole his silver King Lester didn't replace it and never played clarinet again.
