-->I am therefore opening a clarinet recycling station. Please send all of
your
-->old clarinets to me and I will make sure that this wood gets recycled!
How will the wood be recycled, specifically? I suggest:
Bin 1. Resonant but hard-blowing;
Bin 2. Freeblowing but thin-toned;
Bin 3. Dark, thick-walled, but useless for jazz;
Bin 4. Tenon rings made it sound better;
Bin 5. Tenon rings made no difference;
Bin 6. The barrel supplied was the best after all;
Bin 7. Found superglue on the bridge key cork;
Bin 8. Found it in a pawn shop and I never played a better one.

Enjoy the task! ---Bill F.
