 Re: right thumb pain

I have a neckstrap and just started using it again when my thumb flared up but my problem with it is that I can't seem to hold my clarinet at the proper angle with it. It's a pretty nice strap...Neotech. Someone suggested this earlier on too. It seems to hold it at too close an angle to my body...not enough angled away to get the proper mouthpiece placement. I may just need to work with it.

I did turn the thumb rest around. I can't tell yet if it is going to help because my thumb is still sore from yesterday. I do feel the difference in hand placement and I think I like it. I think it might even be better to move the thumb even further up. I can see where there is a possible design flaw in most clarinets by placing the TR where it is. I'll have to check it out for awhile and see what I think after a week or so of this TR turn around. Rebecca
