Subj: Re: [kl] Pads: Single versus Double Bladder (It does not matter)

I had my clarinet repadded with Strabinger (sp?) pads and it plays great now
(a mid-70's Buffet RC). The Srtabinger pads are expensive, but they do seal
great. The felt that is used in the pads is of the very highest quality and
there are some other ways the pads are made (my tech explained it to me) that
make these pads very high quality. They also have a much longer life than
the traditional bladder pads (so they say. I haven't had mine long enough
check that out. I am impressed with these pads. I am not sure what the
covering is, but I know it is not fishskin. I don't know if anyone else had
has experience with the Starbingers, but I think they are super.
