So earlier today, or, yesterday by my time, I took a trip to Muncy Winds and purchased an R-13 Vintage. I also got a Muncy barrell, and a BG metal tradition lig. I'm very, VERY happy with my new set up. ASnd the people at the shop were so nice, and so thorough, it was very, very easy to find the perfect fit. Though, choosing between barrells was a tough choice. [:
Anyway, I'm wondering about the breaking in procedures. Rod, from the store, gave me some advice, but everywhere I read it's slightly different. The conseunsus seems to be either 15 minutes at a time, or three five minute intervals, swabbing immediately afterwards, and keeping it somewhere in which the humidity is not liable to change. I'm curious though, as many of you know much, much more about the clarinet than I do, what are your suggestions.
Also, is there a "right time" after which the clarinet "gets broken in" and is ready to be played on full time?
