As far as I know, Forrests (in Berkeley, CA, actually East of S.F.) only
deals in double reeds. If they dabble in clarinets (not in their
catalog-see www.forrestsmusic.com), it is only a minor thing. Much
better off to try Best Instruments or House of Woodwinds in Oakland.
There are others in the Bay Area, so if you want some more advice,
e-mail me privately.
