Hi,

I forgot to mention which C# key. I am referring to the left handed C#
F#
key. My pinkie is having to stretch all the way and press it
down all the way to get a sound out. 1) It is so far away and 2) It is
hard
to press all the way down with the pinkie. Is there an extension for
the
left handed C#, F# key?

If you can't even reach the C# key, be glad that you don't have to use
the alternate LH Eb Key (on the Prestige's).

Have you tried other Clarinet brands?? The Buffet E-11 keys are
smaller than the R-13
