66 mm barrels, urgent advice

Author: bawa

My daughter's teacher has asked her to get a new barrel of 66 mm length for her Buffet RC clarinet, otherwise the clarinet plays too sharp and she has to take out the barrel too much in order to be able to play it in tune. The barrel is the one that came standard with the clarinet (bought in Dec 2003)

I have been searching the board, but all the threads that I have found seem to be talking about bores, tapers etc and also Chadash and Moening (which seem to be shorter).

Any recommendations on what makes or models to look at/ try? Also, I don't know if brands like Chadash are available here in Europe.

Thank you. I don't know if it is relevant but she plays on a Vandoren B40 mouthpiece with Optimum ligature
