Subj: repairing clarinet cracks
Date: Sat, 20 Jan 1996 12:43:08 -0500

I just recently started reading these messages...so I hope this topic hasn't
been discussed recently. I have a Buffet clarinet, purchased in 1980, that
has had 2 cracks in itsince about 1987 (one kind of parallel to the register
key and one directly opposite it). Anyway, I'm wondering what is involved
in getting it fixed...are there alot of options? Also, is there any chance
that fixing clarinet cracks could hurt the sound, rather than improve it?

Thanks,
Mary
