Age, wear and tear, state of the pads and corks, cracks in the wood, the quality of sound, and the type-basic clarinet evaluation.
=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.=
Model, condition?

What is the value of a Bluescher clarinet played in the 1930's in it's original case # 206217
The value of a clarinet depends on its condition. I suggest taking it to a dealer or instrument repair technician to get an evaluation. Some of the things to consider is the condition of the pads and corks, how well the instrument has been care for, how worn the keys are, is the action of the keys good for starters.
500$
