Triebert Bb LP Albert system clarinet

This is the first Triebert I've worked on.   From the research I've done this was a separate Parisian firm that eventually was taken over by Couesnon, another fine French maker.  My feeling is this very well could be a Couesnon product, which is a good thing, they make great stuff!

The clarinet has the common key setup of rings on the upper section and rollers for the lower pinky keys.
Interestingly enough, the bell and barrel are hard rubber but the body sections are wood!  I'm positive they are original.
The clarinet is pitched in Bb and is LP (low pitch).

This one was well played, alot of the keys needed swedging!
I did what I typically do with old clarinets which is really what most would call a refurbishment, but with some extras.
I strip the instrument down, oil the wood over the course of a few days.
I don't have a buffer so I polish keys by hand.  The upside of this is that I can keep key cork that is otherwise in fine useable shape.  I'm not one to get crazy over shiny keys anyway.   Not to mention that cork is expensive,  why waste it if its doing its job, just to run the keys through the buffer?
I almost always fully repad with the leather pads from Ferrees except in rare cases where the pads on the instrument are ok.
I check for key play, keys are swedged or pivot screws countersunk so everything is tight.
Cracks are repaired if there are any.
On reassembly I play the instrument and check for cork/key adjustments.

This old Albert system clarinet has now been re-homed!
