I too am curious as to what high-pitch vs low-pitch means relative to the same
(?) instrument? I recently obtained a c-Melody sax which has "low-pitch"
engraved on the body. I have been told that high-pitch C-melody's are "a dime
a dozen", but to avoid them as it is impossible to tune them to a piano?

I had never heard the same terminology applied to clarinets.
