Mick -

I'd probably have to agree with Spaw - it'd make a nice lamp.

If the instrument has not been played for a while, it's likely that the leather pads have hardened to the point of being - at best - marginally playable. And it's unlikely that, as an instrument, it's worth the cost of pad replacement, unless you want to fool with it yourself.

A warning if you do play it - the clarinet is a fairly "strong" instrument, so you may be welcome only in the bagpipe and squeezebox section of a session.
