Clarinets
We produce clarinets with German system
and clarinets with Reform Boehm system,
which was invented over 80 years ago
by Herbert Wurlitzer’s father Fritz Wurlitzer.
We manufacture the entire clarinet family
from the A-flat clarinet
to the contrabass clarinet.
Clarinets German System
Our clarinets are made exclusively from carefully stored and selected according to strict criteria grenadilla wood. The mechanism is made of nickel silver and is extra heavily silver plated and highly polished. Clarinets come with one to two barrels (depending on model,) and one mouthpiece.
Shipping including insurance within Europe free of costs, to all other countries 60-80€.

Clarinets Reform-Boehm System
The Reform-Boehm Clarinet was invented more than 80 years in our house – an instrument with “French” fingering and the sound of a “German” clarinet.
This means that as a Boehm clarinetist you do not have to switch to the German system to achieve the typical WURLITZER sound.
The WURLITZER Reform-Boehm clarinet is the ultimate combination of the beautiful, powerful sound of the German bore with the French fingering, which has been modernized with even more alternative grip / pitch options.
Shipping including insurance within Europe free of costs, to all other countries 60-80€.
