Subj: [kl] Chadash Barrels

I have tried to email the man himself on the address given on the
website, but it doesn't work. So, appealing to the combined knowledge of
the list....

The site implies that Chadash barrels are mass produced - in the sense
that one buys a ready made one rather than any implication of huge
production runs. Yet I have a race memory of talking to someone who took
his clarinet to Guy and had a barrel made specifically for that very
instrument.

Given that I will be in New York for five days in September I thought
this might have been the opportunity for the latter.....

So what is the score? It is of course quite possible that both are true!
And does anyone know any reason why one of these barrels is unsuited to
the RC (I'm aware that there is a strong preference to the R-13 over
there!) He just deals with the Bb/A?

Finally does anyone have a working email address for him?
