Subj: [kl] Leather clarinet pads
Date: Wed, 25 Aug 1999 19:45:57 -0400

I recently encountered an older Noblet clarinet that had been freshly
overhauled and repadded with leather pads. I played on it, and found it to
be rather resistant and stuffy. Other Noblets I have tried have not been
that way at all.

Would this resistance and stuffiness be due to the leather pads themselves or
the way they were put in? Is it common to use nothing but leather pads
during a repad job? Inquiring minds are curious..........
