Description
Many of the earlier Evette and Evette & Schaeffer clarinets were made by Malerne. So with Evette and Evette & Schaeffer that basically means the A, B, D and E series are Malerne made, which ironically coincides with Malernes serial number conventions. Unless they are stamped “Made in Germany”;
then those were Schreiber made.
Malerne has three distinct soprano clarinets. The “Professional” which had 4 stars, the “Intermediate” which had 3 stars, and the “Standard” model which had no stars and was considered the student model. Malerne stenciled their clarinets and you can find Malernes as Conns, Olds and Linton, Evette (Buffet student), Evette and Schaeffer (Buffet Intermediate), Selmer UK clarinets and many others.
