 Clarinet tuning problems
Author: nic_nac

Hi all,
I have just started playing clarinet again after a 6 year break and since I'm not at school any more and therefore don't have a teacher to keep me right with regards to tuning, i decided to purchase a tuner today. The gentleman in the store reccommended a JOYO JT-12C tuner and told me to adjust the frequency to 439. When I got home I followed his instructions and played note "C" on my clarinet. However, the display on the tuner showed "A#"! Can my clarinet really be that out of tune? And if so, how do I go about fixing it? I play a Buffet E13.

Any help would be much appreciated,
Nic
