Ha! Back in my "early" days, I wanted an "A" clarinet. A friend of mine found the "Howard Tuner" device and bought it for me. It goes between the mpc and the barrel joint (there's a metal "springy" thing that hooks on the edge of the shelf there). It narrows the bore, bringing the tone of a Bb (mine was Albert system) down to an A. It does work; the tone is compromised somewhat though.
Interesting device.
