Subj: Curved barrel for Bb?
Date: Thu, 8 Dec 1994 17:40:45 -0500

I've been away from the group for awhile, so don't know if this was
ever covered. Question is, does a curved barrel exist for a Bb clarinet,
or does anyone make such a thing? Reason, I have a problem with (my) neck
which makes it difficult for me to hold the clarinet out and up as far
as I need to to get proper angle on mouthpiece. A curved barrel, or
mouthpiece would be a help.
