1st #instrument. A second-hand ‘simple system’ (which is technically harder than the successor #Boehm system) clarinet. Never settled on a comfortable embouchure.
2nd 🎷. A Guban alto saxophone - a licensed Selmer Mk.VI alto copy. Best saxophone I ever had. Superior to the #Selmer #SA80 Super Action 80. I saved
up for one during a tour of Northern Ireland. Bought it cash from Bill Lewington. Took me for a mug until I waved 💷 at him. Later the British Army changed from the #SLR to the SA80!
