Subj: [kl] Cocobolo Barrels...

Does anyone know of anyone who's making Cocobolo wood barrels? I've
just had the opportunity to play on some that are terrific sounding but
a little bit off in pitch. The person that's making them is just
experimenting and has a long way to go on the pitch aspects of clarinet
barrels, but the wood just sounds fantastic. I'd be interested in
trying a variety of tapers, i.e. the standards such as Moennig and
Chadash.

If anyone knows of someone who's making these, please send email to me
privately or to the list. TIA.

Regards,
Michael Norsworthy
