Clarinet in A and Clarinet in B flat
In the Shackleton Collection of Clarinets at Edinburgh University there is an example of a Henry Gunckel stamped clarinet. This brand is said in the catalogue to be a trade name of Buffet Crampon, Paris, 1880-1920c. Somewhere else on the web I've seen a statement that a Chicago importer (Healy?) stamped imported French clarinets with the Henry Gunckel name. This is not inconsistent with the first piece of information. I have a B flat simple (albert) system example which is chunky with a high key action and really nice nickel silver keys.
Clarinets come in many keys. The most common key is Bb (B flat), in which the tuning note is C. There are many other kinds of clarinets including the alto clarinet, bass clarinet, Eb clarinet, and many more.

The main differences between a flat clarinet and a standard clarinet are in their sound quality and playing technique. A flat clarinet produces a lower, darker sound compared to a standard clarinet, which has a brighter and more traditional sound. Playing a flat clarinet requires adjustments in finger placement and embouchure due to its longer length, while a standard clarinet is more commonly used and has a more familiar playing technique.
There are bass, soprano, and alto. But there are more than Three sizes! There is the Eb soprano, Bb soprano (most commonly seen), Alto clarinet, Bass clarinet, Contra-alto clarinet, and contra-bass clarinet. There is also an A clarinet!
