For me the problem with the standard thumb position on the clarinet is a combination of being too low (thumb opposing middle finger rather than first finger) and too "tight" (hand not open enough, the problem that the Ridenour saddle addresses).

Dansil, I can't tell from looking at the Kooiman Etude if it can be adjusted high enough to put my thumb across from my first finger or not. Can it? It seems pretty clear that the Maestro can.
