Hey everyone!
Just wanted to get your attention. :-)

Actually, I DO love Walter's barrel. He recently overhauled my
1911 Buffet A clarinet, and when he returned the clarinet, he included
one of his barrels for me to try. It is great!
I was having a little trouble with flatness in the throat tones, and his
barrel greatly improved this. An added bonus is that this barrel works
equally well on both my A and my Bb, so during orchestra rehearsals/
performances, when switching horns, I can just change both the barrel
and the mouthpiece as a single unit. The barrel is already warmed up
that way, too!

Thank you Walter!

Sue
