Subj: Re: [kl] Bass Clarinet Tuning Question
Date: Mon, 07 Nov 2005 19:19:37 -0500

When warmed up my bass plays very happily at 444 when all the way pushed in.
I swear that at one point I saw someone mention that Buffet 1193s were
tuned to 444 anyway.
I guess my question now becomes...if you are pulled out that far, how do I
get the 2 bridge mechanisms to touch? I am pulling out to the point that
the bridges are not meeting up. Should I just build some type of bridge
extension?

Thanks,
