I just noticed that the throat Bb is very flat on one of my clarinets. ...actually my teacher noticed, and I checked it against a tuner at home. It's about 30 cents flat. The G, G#, A, B, and C are close to being perfectly in tune. I have two questions as a result:

1) How many cents out of tune are acceptable in slower passages?
2) Is that a quirk of that instrument, or can a repairman help without ruining upper register intonation?
