Ebay search for Albert clarinet:

Also you are looking for an Albert / German System clarinet Bb HP.
I explain HP in the article that I sent you!
Also how much money do you have available? That will help you narrow down your choices!
Greg,
I had never checked the German website!! Good idea!
Well I'm looking for Kohlert Clarinet Bb or Bb (sib). I'm thinking of around $700ish as I'm just a beginner but I'm not 100% which is why I need you guys to help me come up with a decision. All I want is a good clarinet to play wonderful traditional music. :p That Hellas style clarinet on hammerschmidt website looks really nice.

This looks interesting! Ask for some more info from the seller! Again you want to make sure if it is LP or HP.

It is going to be a good clarinet. However at that price you can get an old one refurbished in good condition!!
Tbh...I lean towards a new clarinet because you wont go through the growing pains of figuring out whats wrong with the clarinet (or your technique as chitowngreek mentioned!)

I have sent him an e-mail and I have replied to him asking more questions but I haven't got a latest e-mail from him Chito. I e-mailed him what are the prices for Bb ones so yeah I'll ask him about used clarinets.
