In a word, yes. My Greg Smith(s) did, my M13Lyre did, and my Richard
Hawkins does. The proper barrel will help enormously for the C clarinet.

You might also want to check with Ralph Morgan - he makes a proper C
clarinet mouthpiece, so I'm told. Sorry, I don't have contact info at
hand. It's been discussed here in the past. Of course that means another
setup to keep "wet" for playing situations.
