I second this. I bought two mouthpieces and a barrel when I visited Clark
about 18 months ago. Not only a good selection but Clark can make
modifications on the spot.

This is my first time posting and I have two questions I am
hoping for some help on.

1. Does anyone know of any places in the San Francisco area
where I might be able to try out a variety of mouthpieces and
barrels? I have been playing on a Gennusa for years, but I was
hoping to try some others.

2. Long ago when I bought my first clarinet, an R13 from 1960,
it came with a Buffet barrel which had a serial number on it:
1131 680, but no other marking. (Aside from the Buffet seal)
I was under the impression their regular barrels didn't have
serial numbers, but in any case this one isn't anywhere near
the serial number of the clarinet.
>>
Clark Fobes lives in San Francisco and makes great mouthpieces. He also
makes
barrels. If I lived anywhere near there I would have him match a mouthpiece
and barrel to my clarinet.

You can get to his web site from the Klarinet web site.

Good Luck......and tell Clark I sent ya! (maybe I'll get a discount next
purchase, right Clark???)
