So Gigliotti is not alone in not liking to oil the bore! He says that it
deadens the sound.- (and he is a clarinet designer)

If I'm not mistaken, William Brannen in Evanston, IL recommends to never oil
the bore. However, I bet there are as many opinions about this as there are
members of this list!
