Gordon,
When was the last time you removed your register tube and thoroughly
cleaned the crud that tends to accumulates around it? Swabs have trouble
cleaning that part of the bore. Many horns have tapered tubes that must be
removed by pushing from the inside. This takes a special tool. Have a pro
do it.

======================================================

Does not take a special tool, just the right instructions. The rubber end of
needlenose pliers do the trick. See my instructions at

Make sure that you do not have a screw-in type of tube!!!!!!!

Also a repairman can add some sweet almond oil, and or acetone to change the
water path in your Clarinet (have a Pro do that one.)
