Where did Pete Fountain play his clarinet?

Well I think this is an easy answer, but I have not checked with Pete on this. Believe Pete has mostly played the Leblanc Pete Fountain clarinet model with gold keys. As far as mouthpiece, again there is a Pete Fountain crystal clear mouthpiece. I play with same equipment, but somehow that has not made me play as well as Pete can sing on it. ---- Before the "Pete Fountain" model he played a stock, large-bore (15mm) Leblanc Dynamic H. After he became famous Leblanc marketed the Dynamic H with a bell having Pete Fountain's signature engraved. The clarinet body was still marked as Dynamic H and at various times was available with gold or silver/nickel keys. Later, a model was sold completely remarked as a Pete Fountain clarinet. This model (1611) differs in that it has an articulated G# key. You'll also notice an additional hole on the tendon joint right through the cork. The current Leblanc Pete Fountain clarinet model (1612) is marketed as the "Big Easy" and also has the articulated G# key and gold plated keys. All the various incarnations of the Leblanc Pete Fountain clarinet have retained the 15mm bore. A mint Leblanc 1611, serial number 613xx, previously owned by Pete Fountain (including a Certificate of Authenticity signed by him), sold at auction (online) in December, 2008, for $2375.00. ----
