I wonder how much of this is problem of the listener...sometimes when a
clarinetist is too close to their own sound they will tend to hear more air
then anything. As to the flatness of an E on this clef it is not too bad a
problem unless it is way out...you can open the side key Eb key to vent this
somewhat and may raise it quite dramitically.

When it comes time for repair simply have the technician tune this for
you..also check with a tuner how the 12th is as well....

Not all reeds tune the same way either!!!
