 Re: articulated clarinets - the G tonehole
Author: Bob Phillips

I've just switched out of a Buffet with an articulated G#. The third ring on the top of the upper joint is in line with the others. The G tone hole is in line with the A, B.

BUT, it is higher than the un-ringed G-hole in a 6/17 clariinet. I have had no problems covering the offset tone hole on my new Buffet. My left ring finger drops further to the body of the clarinet, but falls naturally over the offset tone hole.

Perhaps the raised chimney calls for the hole to be moved back in line with the others.

On my articulated G# instrument, the G# tone hole comes up through the tenon to the top of the clarinet --it does not fill with "condensation" --as my new one does.
