In high school I used to fiddle with a "tromboon" (to mix
metaphors). Pretty odd sound. Later, using a single reed, I got
something sounding very like a kazoo - probably more appropriate for the
football field than I was then willing to admit. I didn't do a lot of
tinkering. Unfortunately, you seem to need constant tube dimensions to get
the clarinet sound.
