That's unfortunate. I guess the fact that he was reluctant to take the job in the first place probably should have been a warning sign.

If you are going to go for another overhaul I would recommend contacting Wesley Rice (http://www.clarinet-repairs.com/). He did a great job overhauling my Selmer CT Omega and my Leblanc Dynamique, both of which were 7-ring models. He was very meticulous about tightening up all of the keywork and both clarinets felt like brand new instruments when I got them back.
