Sorry for the wrong terminology...I had to laugh at
the thought of you putting the barrel on upside down!

What about a Chadash or Fox barrel for the Eb? I
really go for the barrel if the particular instrument
acts funny in pitch. It might give you a different
perspective on the instrument.

Oh, I guess trying more Patricolas might help <LOL>. I
tried 6 before I found the one I wanted. The others
that Patricola brought to Clarinet Fest played
differently, and didn't suit my needs as well as the
one I bought.
