 Lining up the Labels
Author: ThatPerfectReed

Maybe this is one of those questions that best belongs on a show like Mythbusters: the Clarinet version.

I've been told, and have suggested to others, that the labels on the pieces of the instrument be lined up at assembly time, just prior to playing. But frankly, my own personal justification for doing so has been more about "it can't hurt," rather than "not doing so can hurt."

I'd be interested in hearing from the 'camp' that says, "yes, do this, because..." --offering their good reason(s) why, as well as the 'camp' that says, "c'mon..it's purely a cosmetic thing, it doesn't affect performance."

Of course, justification may vary among manufacturers and manufacturing dates. This contributor plays an R13 from the 1960's.

Any thoughts? Thanks in advance!
