I would think in the neighborhood of $1,000 to $1,500 bracket depending on where you market it and IF it's in pristine condition, but it is a good brand, of professional ilk. You would be wise to contact several music stores who deal in new instruments and find out the going rate for new ones first. The serial number isn't all that significant. **You probably have a step up model clarinet. - i play the clarinet as well. Buffet clarinets are probably worth (depends on what condition) $1-3,000.

Insufficient information. Could be a late 40's early 50's Master Model, could be a 1980's E12...could be a number of models! You need to provide more information and some links to pictures.

The serial number of a clarinet is generally located on the back of the upper joint.

=Well first off, the H20799 is just the serial number on the clarinet. It isn't important on the value of the clarinet. Second, it depends on if it is wood or plastic.=
the number does not matter.but I got that brand too.If bass then from 500 to700.If just a clarinet 400 to 1200.
