Yeah, I can imagine that they're frequently received in need of
adjustment, and in an online review that I read, the person made a similar
comment about ligature problems.

Does Mr. Fobes make a Debut for Eb? You could easily solve the mouthpiece
problem that way if he does...

For those who aren't familiar with what exactly a Kinder-Klari is, check

to pick one up myself now that I'm thinking about them.
