a problem. But I worked around those problems as best as I could and

Did you ever try the Uebel basset horns (from the old east Germany, and I=

don't know if they are still around). Narrow bore instruments but
beautifully made. I had the fortune to play some rented but brand new one=
s.

Their bores were also narrow in their bass clarinet - also a nice
instrument, but one professional who had one wondered whether it really
sounded too much like a soprano clarinet, just an octave lower, =
