My technician here in Buffalo, NY has been able to perform modifications to
the pad and vent that considerably improve both the Bb AND the long B. He
did this for
three pair of clarinets for the Principal of the BPO who said it was the
single
most impressive improvement he's found for his clarinets. For certain
situations,
he has also been able to move the Bb (register) tone hole the 2-3mm necessary
to correct the intonation problems associated with tonehole placement.
Questions can be sent to him directly (I primarily play bari sax
and bass
clarinet and this will keep me out of the middle) ---Jeff Brody
